RE: Reliable information or manipulative content? Spot the difference!
There's a reason we had to learn how to write scientific papers and cite papers in school. Taught us what we can trust vs what is fake news.
People who spread the fake news like canola oil, Teflon coated pans, and many more must have skipped the classes on "How To Write And Cite Scientific Papers."
So true that people take social media as their new sources now. A simple Google search can prove or disprove what memes claim. But people are too lazy to do any research work.
Great article @irime!
Exactly! It only takes a few minutes to find out. I know that many of us assume things without confirming for sure (especially if it aligns with something we already accepted or believe in), but at least we all should be more responsible about what we share with others, to avoid spreading misinformation.
Thanks for your comment, @cabernet :-)
