RE: How can You check if a News is Fake ?

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Nice post there @arunava
One of the reasons I stopped using Facebook is because of fake news. Facebook is a place where some nerds just wake up one morning and decide to make up some shitty news just to get cheap likes. I got sick of the 'news' and I stopped using the site you about 8 months.

Sort:  

Yes it was a common occurrence. Not only on Facebook but on WhatsApp too.

I used to get messages like

Forward this to 10 people and your Government will give you 100 INR talk time.

And I am like For Real the Government has nothing better to do.

Lol. How pathetic is someone calling himself God and asking him to like/share his post so as to avoid seven years of bad luck? 😂😂

Yeah, ​that is Lame too. I get those Messages in Whatsapp on a Daily basis.
