  1. I think we would need worldwide legislation that if you publish some piece of news on your news website or other distribution site, corrections to said piece of news must always have equal or greater visibility on your platform and you're required to publish such corrections if you published the original piece of news. That would put at least some incentive to publishing probably wrong stuff on the front page of your publication because you would highly probably end up publishing the corrections later with similar visibility. If you would continue to publish crap, at least half of your content would be corrections only pretty soon. And note that this should include all news, not just science related news. Obviously yellow journalism wouldn't want any of this.
