• 3. Now watch the video and find information about:

    - The fake news that can be found on the Internet:

            - scientists have cloned a dinosaur

    - the world is going to go dark for 6 whole days

    - several young celebrities died (Beyonce, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus)

    - those created as a joke (because people are bored)

    - those that are deliberately posted to trick us

    - you can lose weight by eating a chocolate bar a day

     

    - The reasons why there is so much fake news:

    - to make money

    - to make people think differently about something / someone

     

    - The solutions imagined by companies and social media sites:

    - attempting to sort the fake news from the real ones

    - posting warnings alongside fake reports

    - Google and Facebook try to prevent fake news sites from being able to make money through ads.

     

    - What people should do to spot fake news:

    - do not just read the headlines

    - check the source (is it a reliable one?)

    - make sure it is a normal news story (not a satirical one, not sponsored by business, not written as someone’s opinion)

    - always question what you read and what you’re told

     

    - The news story at the end of the video:

    - Kanye West is running for president and called himself a god. It seems to be fake but it is real!

  • What do you think of Mark Zuckerberg's quote (2012):

     

    “By giving people the power to share, we’re making the world more transparent”. Explain if it is a reassuring definition of Facebook or not. Give arguments.
