BRASILIA, Jan 8 (Reuters) - Brazilian prosecutors on

Wednesday ordered that social media platform Meta

clarify whether recently announced changes to its fact-checking

program in the United States will also be applied to the South

American country.

Meta, which on Tuesday scrapped its U.S. fact-checking

program and reduced curbs on discussions around contentious

topics such as immigration and gender identity, was given 30

days to provide a response, a document seen by Reuters showed.
