What is fake news? How to spot it and what you can do to stop it:
https://www.theguardian.com/media/2016/dec/18/what-is-fake-news-pizzagate
And what can I do to stop its spread?
Share responsibly. Much as it might depress you to think in such terms, you are an influencer within your own social network: put in the legwork above, and only post or share stories you know to be true, from sources you know to be responsible. It’s the “take only photographs, leave only footprints” for the post-truth era.
You can help shape the media you want, too. Withhold “hate-clicking” on stories you know are designed to make you angry. Pay for journalism you value.
And if you have connections on Facebook who think Onion stories are real, break it to them gently. Friends don’t let friends share fake news.

Here are all the ‘fake news’ sites to watch out for on Facebook
https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/fake-news-sites-list-facebook/
In addition to the list, Zimdars has created a tip sheet for news consumers so that we all might better decipher what’s real, what’s fake, and what’s simply misleading in ways that have nothing to do with whether you agree with a particular article or not:
- Avoid websites that end in “lo” ex: Newslo (above). These sites take pieces of accurate information and then packaging that information with other false or misleading “facts” (sometimes for the purposes of satire or comedy).
- Watch out for websites that end in “.com.co” as they are often fake versions of real news sources
- Watch out if known/reputable news sites are not also reporting on the story. Sometimes lack of coverage is the result of corporate media bias and other factors, but there should typically be more than one source reporting on a topic or event.
- Odd domain names generally equal odd and rarely truthful news.
- Lack of author attribution may, but not always, signify that the news story is suspect and requires verification.
- Some news organizations are also letting bloggers post under the banner of particular news brands; however, many of these posts do not go through the same editing process (ex: BuzzFeed Community Posts, Kinja blogs, Forbes blogs).
- Check the “About Us” tab on websites or look up the website on Snopes or Wikipedia for more information about the source.
- Bad web design and use of ALL CAPS can also be a sign that the source you’re looking at should be verified and/or read in conjunction with other sources.
- If the story makes you REALLY ANGRY it’s probably a good idea to keep reading about the topic via other sources to make sure the story you read wasn’t purposefully trying to make you angry (with potentially misleading or false information) in order to generate shares and ad revenue.
- It’s always best to read multiple sources of information to get a variety of viewpoints and media frames. Some sources not yet included in this list (although their practices at times may qualify them for addition), such as The Daily Kos, The Huffington Post, and Fox News, vacillate between providing important, legitimate, problematic, and/or hyperbolic news coverage, requiring readers and viewers to verify and contextualize information with other sources.
