 SOCIAL MEDIA NEWS


 The rise of social media and online platforms means misleading information can rapidly go viral. And guess what its good to always be skeptical 

 there's plenty of misleading material online. Sharing liking or retweeting such content only helps to amplify. It here is some simple tips on how to spot fake news. 
 

First of all look at the sources -who has shared it and who has published it?


 Check the language is it sensationalist or full of loaded terms? Social media platforms are fraught with misleading images and memes. Memes featuring a public figure and a quote can look very convincing.
Double-check the quote.  

Did the person in the meme actually say it?

 Zoom into an image to check for any hints about its location, like a shop or a street sign, a vehicle's license plate, a billboard, or a placard. In 2020 this article was widely shared in the Middle East and claimed to show police in Iranlooting a shop during street protests. The clue that this is fake is right here.

 Where the Spanish word for police is clearly visible on the riot shield. The video was actually from Mexico. Platforms like Google, TinEye, Bing, and Yandex allow you to check when an image first appeared on the web so you know if it's an old image doing the rounds.

 There are plenty of inauthentic social media accounts. While identifying a bot account is not always easy and usually can only be done by the tech companies there are some things you can look out for. Be careful. 

These clues on their own do not necessarily suggest a user is about or suspicious. Check an account's handle or username. Does it have loads of random letters and numbers in succession? That might suggest that the account was generated by an algorithm.

 Look at the account's bio. How much information is provided and does it match their activity? You can also reverse search the profile photo Is it a generic stock image or is it stolen from somewhere else? Their timeline can tell you a lot too. Do they write the content of their own and engage with other users or do they only share or retweet content? As a general rule of thumb if you see an unverified account posting more than 70times a day on a regular basis alarm bells should ring.
