Task 2.Read some tips for spotting fake news and choose the correct answers.

How to spot fake news

Every time you’re online, you are bombarded by pictures, articles, links and videos trying to tell their story. Unfortunately, not all of these stories are true. Sometimes they want you to click on another story or advertisement at their own site, other times they want to upset people for political reasons. These days it’s so easy to share information. These stories circulate quickly, and the result is … fake news. There is a range of fake news: from crazy stories which people easily recognise to more subtle types of misinformation. Experts in media studies and online psychology have been examining the fake news phenomenon. Read these tips, and don’t get fooled!

1. Check the source. Look at the website where the story comes from. Does it look real? Is the text well written? Are there a variety of other stories or is it just one story? Fake news websites often use addresses that sound like real newspapers, but don’t have many real stories about other topics. If you aren’t sure, click on the ‘About’ page and look for a clear description of the organisation.

2. Check the storyin other places. Look to see if the story you are reading is on other news sites that you know and trust. If you do find it on many other sites, then it probably isn’t fake (although there are some exceptions), as many big news organisations try to check their sources before they publish a story.

3. Look for other signs. There are other techniques that fake news uses. These include using ALL CAPS and lots of ads that pop up when you click on a link. Also, think about how the story makes you feel. If the news story makes you angry, it’s probably designed to make you angry.

If you know these things about online news, and can apply them in your everyday life, then you have the control over what to read, what to believe and most importantly what to share. If you find a news story that you know is fake, the most important advice is: don’t share it!

1. Which reason is NOT given for an online fake news story?

a. To convince people of a political view b. To make people angry or sad c. To plant a virus in your computer

2. The text says some fake news …

a. is easy to recognise as fake. b. is funny. c. comes from the political right.

3. Which of these may mean that a news site should not be trusted?

a. The text is well written. b. The site has a variety of other stories.

c. The site’s ‘About’ page does not clearly describe the organisation.

4. What should you do with fake news?

a. Report it to the police b. Make a note of it for reference c. Not show it to other people online

5. What is the purpose of this article?

a. To complain b. To inform c. To entertain
