Fake news is everywhere nowadays and it is impossible to put an end to it. However, we can help ourselves by figuring out a way to spot fake news. Spotting fake news can be difficult sometimes because it does not take a lot to convince someone that the news they are reading is real.
Some important ways that people are trying to stop the spread of fake news is to first check the author and make sure he/she is credible, check the source, check the date, and check the support. Eugine Kiely states "Nobody by the name of "Rustler" has won a Pulitzer or Peabody award," which is an example of checking the author. Following these tasks can save you time and make sure you are getting the correct information you deserve. This type of news spreads so fast and before continuing to spread it as well, just do a favor and make sure it's not fake news, so you too can stop the spreading of fake news.
