Internet Police!
Should we have an Internet Police Department? I enjoy reading a good story just as much as the next person but I never gave much thought how easy it is to get lost in translation or confused separating fact from fiction within news stories. The latest news around fake news on the internet is an eye opener for me. This break in the news couldn’t have come at a better time since I get all of my news info online. I need to reevaluate how much of trust I’m willing to extend to internet news sources. How do you validate your online information? Do you have a trusted news outlet or source?
We all just need to be more vigilant do more research and not jump so quickly to what we read online. It's a personal discipline issue that does not need government intervention or policing.
Thats already happening in other countries so it's just a matter of time before we start doing it here.
I couldn't agree with you more! We as a society have become completely attached to social media that we will believe just about anything
that's going to lead to tax on internet transactions. use local and national network news (CNN) or established journalism like the Wall Street Journal.
