15. HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO IF YOU COME ACROSS AN ARTICLE THAT SEEMS FISHY: 1. Enter the keywords of the story into a search engine and get a second opinion from a credible news site with verifiable sources. 2. Check the dates involved in the article. Fake news writers sometimes take a real story from the past, put an outrageous headline on it, and try to pass it off as a current event. 3. Find the source of the author’s information for the article. Is the source credible? 4. Does the website’s appearance look a little strange? Some fake news sites mimic the appearance of legitimate news sources, tricking the casual reader. 5. Take a look at the headlines of other stories from the same website.
