Spotting Fake News Stories- Perhaps We Can Use This as a Guide? What Do You Think?
I always check the source. Most of my news comes from the New York Times and Wall Street Journal.
Any news person or journalist will tell you if they make a mistake. No apologies, not a real journalist. Also the title can mean nothing, check out stuff. I consider it to be false until I see it in several, more than three reputable places, do not trust the right and do not trust the left. Though I find the left to correct way more often than any right leaning source.
Yes and no. NPR is an org. Some news agencies use the country domains like . Uk
Another good image search is tineye.com

@jlynn37 When looking for a tell on fake news, that's a tell.
Most of what I see that is fake has to do with matters of science. If there is no citation then it is probably made up. Kent Hovind is a master at this deception. There are many others as well. Always always always get straight to the source. The peer review is that source for me.
Good information, we should all be conscientious about only forwarding factual stories.
