Top Five Ways To Identify Fake News Online by sirequity(m): 1:42pm On Jan 31, 2017 |
With the advent of social media and the wider access to the internet in Nigeria and other countries of the world, the news is no longer what it is. Unlike in the past when we all depended on the traditional for informative, educative and entertaining content, it is not so now. This is because the World Wide Web is free and anyone can post or share anything, including fake news, all in the name of driving traffic to their website. Consequently, whatever content you read on blogs or social media should not be taken as the truth. A very recent example is the fake news that President Muhammadu Buhari is dead. The Presidency had to debunk the news. So, how do you identify fake news?
