This will take you to https://www.wikipedia.org/ and tell you whether or not the source is false information.


Wikipedia also has an international list of fake sources, so you can see what sources aren't trustworthy, so if you think a source isn't trustworthy, just check if it is on the list or not.]]> 2022-02-12 01:41:39 UTC https://padlet.com/2098680/24dhwlv9yuypp9xd/wish/2043350700 2098680 https://padlet.com/2098680/24dhwlv9yuypp9xd/wish/2043351442 If you don't know whether a news story is real or fake, try to find the claim, on other sources such as CNN. Copy and paste the claim into the search bar, and find other sites reporting the news. It will be easier to tell whether or not the news story is real, because bigger news sources are more trustworthy.

You can also use https://www.snopes.com/, to instantly see if the information is true or false. Copy and paste the claim onto the Snopes search bar, and it should tell you whether or not its true or false.]]> 2022-02-12 01:43:07 UTC https://padlet.com/2098680/24dhwlv9yuypp9xd/wish/2043351442 2098680 https://padlet.com/2098680/24dhwlv9yuypp9xd/wish/2043351876
If you want to find the original article and the information is sourced, click on the link to go to the article, just in case the story is exaggerated from the original article. Otherwise, copy the information, and paste it on the search bar, and hit enter. You should be able to find the original source on the search results.

If you also want to figure out whether or not an image is showing what it claims to show, use https://tineye.com.

The headline "Majority Of Canadians", and the information got distorted from the original source, "Canadians split along generational lines", so its not trustworthy, because the claim can mislead people. The original claim is more accurate.

I think Snopes is a good fact-checking website for confirming whether or not the information is true or false, because it does it really quickly.

2: Bing News

I think that Bing News is convenient when you are using Microsoft Edge, since it is easy to access and some of the news stories are worth reading.

3: Wikipedia

I think Wikipedia is convenient as an encyclopedia because you can easily get information about anything quickly, even about news websites,
so you can tell whether a news source is reliable or not reliable.

4: CBC News

I think CBC News is one of the best news channels because it keeps you updated on Canada, it is very popular in Canada, and also has interesting news stories.

5: TinEye

I think TinEye is a good tool as a reverse image search engine when it comes to figuring out whether or not the image is showing what it claims to show.]]> 2022-02-12 06:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/2098680/24dhwlv9yuypp9xd/wish/2043481643
