Finding Fake News!

snaghian2

It is not easy to distinguish fake news. The first step in better identifying this phenomenon is to evaluate the types of fake news and steps below;

1. Look at the news with a little skepticism. Fake news headlines are usually interesting.

2. Pay more attention to the website address. Look at the news source. Learn more about that website.

3. Look out for unusual text formats. Many fake news items contain spelling and grammatical errors.

4. Pay attention to the dates. Fake news reports may have timelines that are meaningless

5. Check the sources where the author's name is mentioned. The absence of any source can be a sign that the news is fake.
