Problem definition

Fake news is a global problem and it is getting worse every year. Is it possible to stop fake news? Fake news are made by people named "trolls". These trolls make fake news and send them to people. On the other side of the table are elfs, who defend people from fake news and send "fake news warnings". When people receive fake news, they have basicaly three choices: resend it as it is (basicaly become troll), resend it with "fake news warning" (become elf) or dont resend it. Can elfs beat trolls and defend the majority of system from fake news?
