Facing Fake News

After reading the article I learned that the term "yellow journalism" came from a popular New York world comic called "Hogan's Alley." This featured a character dressed in yellow named the "The Yellow Kid."This was Led by newspaper owners William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer.

Satire Versus Fake News. Themanatee.net published a story on how the government of New Brunswick cuts funding to Santa Claus.The Dangers of and Reasons for Fake News, "Click-bait." The 18-year-old, who lives in the small Eastern European town of Veles, says he made at least $60,000 in the past six months by posting fake news about the American Election. I think that this is true because people have done this a lot. They think of something that they could get people to believe and then they lead them in with a good title. After they watch this fake news, it gets spread around. 

Fake or real news. In the first video they asked 7,800 students if they could tell the difference. More than 82% of them were not able tell the difference. In the second video they had  fake and real news that was on the internet and ask them to tell the difference. Most of the people had a hard time with telling the difference . Don't Believe Everything You Hear Or See On The Internet. Most of the time it is not true. 

Spotting Fake News. In the videos they mainly say to be careful about the fake and real news because you never know what might be the right one. Most of the News story's they talked about were mostly about Donald Trump.
