Recently, there has been a reasonable amount of protesting, as well as violence and rallies among other things. It is very scary and mind boggling to say the very least. Normally, I only write an article a week, but with the recent epidemic of "Fake News" and everything else going on, I feel it's necessary to speak up about this.
Sadly, there are too many news sources out there that claim there news reports are accurate, but in reality, it's fake. This is a matter that is really getting out of control. People need to know and understand when news is real and fake.
Although this is something that all began towards the end of this past year as a result of the election, we need to really think about it more critically. The objective and message I want the readers to capture from this article is, "Take a stance and let your voice be heard." When you aren't happy with something, whether it is fake news or anything, speak up! This will ensure you have a fair say!
When you hear a report, verify it, check known and major news networks such as FOX News. They are my turn to news source because it's accurate and it's news that matters to us, the American people. Also, even right here at Odyssey is accurate along with News12 and NBC. That's just my opinion. As my dad says, "never rely, always verify."
Way too often, people jump to various assumptions and conclusions way too quickly. That is one reason fake news exists. There are many other reasons, but that is one that stands out loud and clear.
So, there you have it folks. A short and simple article about fake news. I hope this article can spread some awareness about this very essential and crucial topic.
