I would use this type of information and record the source in the "Research 
Notes".

Thanks,

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] sourcing social media (FB)

Using SourceWriter I used the Message broads/forums template to record the 
Master Source for Facebook. The Internet > Message Boards template could also 
be used as the Master Source. These have similar basic info, Name of Forum, 
Type and URL in the Master and Author details, title, Date and Date accessed 
for the Details.

Of course anything posted to Facebook is very suspect. On the 8 May 2013 
episode of Jeopardy last night a contestant in the college championship 
admitted he used a photo of Barack Obama during his college years as his 
profile picture for a few weeks. Even his real friends were posting comments on 
how well he looked and how good the picture was.
