Fake new Is everywhere.

 No matter what is the news, there is someone who is posting something fake about it.  We need to fight fake news, so it doesn’t take over us. One person that thinks he is fighting fake new is the Syrian president. He claims that  “Report accusing regime of torture is 'fake news'”. He is saying that regarding the hugely exaggerating report on the number of inmates killed in the Syrian prison.

Syrian President Bashar Assad blasted an Amnesty International report declaring rampant human rights violations in one of his country’s military prisons, calling the findings “fake news” and suggesting that the human rights group simply made up evidence.

Amnesty International recently reported 13,000 inmates at a Syrian military prison were killed between 2011 and the end of 2015. Assad rejected the report’s findings outright, contending that the interviews meant nothing, because “you can forge anything these days.”


Amnesty's university has not been in Syria nor received any real and credible information on the report however amnesty news said that it  has no evidence of executions after December 2015, but based on information that the facility is still being used to imprison innocent people  , "there is no reason to believe the executions have stopped." It is extremely hard to witness the events since it was a time of war. It is hard to find out the real number of inmates killed.

We need to fight the fake news. One way people  has taken action this year, is fact-checkers around the world are taking a stand in favor of facts.They have declared April 2 — the day after April Fool’s Day — as International Fact-checking Day. It’s the citizens way of proclaiming the need for strong evidence and solid facts in journalism and everyday life. Trusting the news nowadays is really hard. information should be gathered from the right source.
