https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb What is your own definition of fake news and how does it get spread? en-us 2019-01-28 20:59:38 UTC 2019-01-28 21:15:14 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157378 2019-01-28 21:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157378 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157387    Fake news is information that is false, but is perceived to look believable, and is 
presented to the public.
 It's spread because of how believable the information is, and how vulnerable that person is]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157387 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157393 I think fake news is news that is false or incorrect created by assumptions and unfactual sources.
I believe fake news spreads throughout the internet and books that are not credible. People read these sources and teach others then the telephone effect occurs and the story changes more and more over time.]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157393 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157403 My own definition of fake news is when someone posts or publicly imputs news that are lies, or news that never actually happened. This includes only lying about SOME of the news. Fake news can spread in many different ways. This can include online, typing, reposting, and in general more viewing.]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157403 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157404 def. Fake news is news that isn't from a reliable source and that isn't giving the whole truth or is making stuff up.
It gets spread through a lot of social media. It can also get spread when people think that they are correct when giving news but then later realize that it isn't correct.]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157404 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157405 Fake New is information that it sourced in a incorrect way. This news is basically lies that people put out to convince others of something or spread fear.

I think that fake news is spread through fake news sources and online. When people see something that is interesting or scares them, they share it so eventually, everyone sees it.  ]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157405 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157407 Fake news are the lies and biased information provided to the public. For example; CNN only shows bad things about Republicans and twist other's words to the dem's advantage. The same can be said about Fox news, too.]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157407 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157417 Fake news can mean many things. It can result as false information. It also is known as rumors. It means that the given information is not true and is not credible. It is used to make something believable, but it is not. Do not trust or use fake news. ]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157417 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157434 Fake news is false news or information. In incorporates lies or biased opinions into the information. Fake news gets spread through the internet because of  people not knowing it is false information. This can happen by the repeated sharing, sending, or forwarding a links with others.]]> 2019-01-28 21:01:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157434 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157484 My own definition of fake news is information that is widely communicated to people but may have false facts or is unreliable. I think fake news gets spread because the sites or sources that the news comes from may look like they are reliable sources but they are truly only scams. It could also be because most fake news is about popular and well-known people or current events that people will easily catch on to. The craving of wanting to know more about that event or person will make them believe that the information is true. Not only does fake news show up on scam sites. It can appear on social media programs such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157484 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157495 Fake news is false or non-reliable  information that is presented to the public. Fake news can also be partially correct, but twisted in a way that makes some of it farce or opinionated.

I believe that fake news is spread through popular news sources. After the news is spread from one source, other sources produce content based on that knowledge. ]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157495 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157522 I think that fake news is when people say something in the news that isn't right it is only part of the truth. ]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157522 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157523 I think that fake news is news that is created to trick an audience into thinking that something is true when it really isn't. I think it gets spread by people asking each other if the news if fake, and they don't know, so they ask someone, and so on.]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157523 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157527 Fake news is news that has wrong and misleading information. It gets around on fake websites that seem reliable but that really aren't. It also gets around because stupid people spread it from the source and eventually everyone hears it. Fake news often has some good information but only a little, the rest is corrupt and unreliable. ]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157527 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157583 Fake news is when someone tells a fake story. This could be because they came up with it and thought it was great, or because someone else shared it with them and they then proceeded to share this "great true story" with their friends. THe platforms that fake news can get spread on are ones such as instagram, facebook, twitter, and then they make their way on to the news]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157583 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157589 Fake news is information that isn't credible and can't be backed up by an outside source. Overall it is false facts that are put out in the public. 

I believe that fake news is spread by unreliable sources and then spread further by the readers of those sites. ]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:19 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157589 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157615 Fake news is non-credible information. It may be false or unreliable. Fake news could be spread in many different ways. This might be over the internet, social media, on paper, etc. It is very commonly misinterpreted and spread around. This causes people to believe false info. Commonly the information is false and negative towards a person, usually famous. Overall Fake News is hoax information.]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157615 helmichnm https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157751 Fake news may be interpreted as a rumor, or a spread of false information. It can derive from one truth or piece of information that has been misheard or misinterpreted, and it continues to spread and morph into something else. This can relate to the game "Telephone" which starts from one phrase, and then you spread or share the phrase to another person, assuming that you heard correctly. ]]> 2019-01-28 21:02:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157751 https://padlet.com/lwalje/4bvknbhkwcjb/wish/325157762 Fake news is incorrect news that was placed out by a news source but they didn't find the original source to find it was fake.
