Fake news post




For this blog post I would like to talk about the upcoming chapter in our textbook online about fake news. I would say that using social media it is easier to try to influence a group to persuade them what to say about an issue.   Online it’s really hard to assume that something is true.  For instance, in the chapter it talks about several online truths and how they go on to make something to be true. One it needs to have evidence, sincerity and you. In other words, you the human have the decision to make whether or not if the news is factual or not factual. This chapter talks about the many categories of fake news which are misinformation and disinformation.  Misinformation is incorrect data where disinformation is things to try to persuade someone.  This year has been hard to figure out what to believe and to not believe.
