How to Resist Fake News

  Fake news has been a common "label" on media lately and people are bound to fall into the traps of the fake news. Of course there are plenty of ways to "resist" the false stories and prevent it from spreading, but not so much to completely stop it. Fake news and click-bait are pretty much spreading lies to gullible people and then those
same people sharing the article and spreading it to MORE people. The best way to resist fake news is.
1. Try not to follow or like any pages on social media that is known to spread false stories.

2. At least read an article first before sharing so it won't be spread.

3. Delete or correct articles that you know for a fact is fake.

  Plenty of people from older generations usually can't help but believe everything they see on social media and even on live news. A good way to resist fake news is to listen or watch better news channels that are reliable and non-biased.
