Fake news is everywhere — Here’s how to know it when you see it

In the good old days, fake news was funny. “I married Bigfoot.” “Computer virus spreads to humans!” We saw stuff like that at the supermarket checkout counter and we laughed.
Now, fake news is everywhere—and it’s no joke. Sometimes it’s dangerous. As it was in 2016, when a North Carolina man drove to a Washington, D.C., pizzeria with an assault rifle to “investigate” the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which claimed (falsely) that Hillary Clinton’s inner circle was running a pedophilia ring out of the restaurant.
Since then, it’s gotten a lot worse. Misinformation dominates the national conversation. It’s online, on the radio, on TV. It’s all over social media. Often, it’s not obviously fake. It’s believable, it’s shareable—and it has the power to cause not only societal damage, but individual harm.
