There are many journalists using “fake news” or “disinformation” to fool people. The UNESCO has created a handbook that shows journalist why telling the truth matters in the news. They are trying to fight misinformation through fact-checking. Fact checking is the act of checking to see if the information in Non-fictional writing is correct or factual. People of the 20th and 21st century depend on the journalist to get the current information and news from all around the world. Recently people have been questioning the credibility of a certain journalist. They are not sure whether or not they can believe the information from the journalist. They are providing nonfactual information to make people believe what they want. https://en.unesco.org/node/296002. [1 image, 2 links, 117 words]
