About The Post


Katharine Graham is the first female publisher of a major American newspaper -- The Washington Post. With help from editor Ben Bradlee, Graham races to catch up with The New York Times to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spans three decades and four U. S. presidents. Together, they must overcome their differences as they risk their careers -- and very freedom -- to help bring long-buried truths to light.

Coronavirus: Here is how you can stop bad information from going viral

Nov 21,2023 6:31 am

Coronavirus misinformation flooded The Internet , and experts are calling on The Public to practice "Information hygiene". What can You do to stop the spread of bad Information ?

1. You stop and think

You want to help family and friends and keep You in The Loop . So, if You get fresh advice - whether by email, WhatsApp, Facebook or Twitter - You could fast forward it to You .

But experts say The Number one thing You can do to stop misinformation is easy to just stop and think.

If You have any doubt, pause and check further.

2. Check your source

Before You send, ask Some basic questions, where did The Information come from.

It is a big Red Flag , if The Source "is a friend of a friend" or "My Aunt 's colleague neighbor".

We have recently pursued.

Some of The Details That were in The Post -carefully - in Some versions, for example, encourages hand washing to slow the spread of The Virus . But other details were potentially harmful, make unproven claims about the, How To diagnose the disease.

"The Most Reliable Sources of Information , health authorities will remain as the, the or the in the United States. "Says Claire Milne, Deputy editor-in-chief of the UK-based fact-checking organisation.

experts are not infallible. But they are much more reliable than a strange distant relatives through WhatsApp.

3. Could it be a fake?

looks can be deceiving.

It is possible to imitate official accounts and agencies, including Bbc News and the government. Screenshots can also be changed, to come to look to Information from a public body trusted.

You can Check known and verified accounts and websites. If You are not easy to find The Information , it is probably a hoax. And if a post, a video, or a link looks Fishy - it probably is.

uppercase letters and mismatched fonts That are somewhat fact-checkers to use them as an indicator of a post could be misleading, according to Claire Milne from Full Fact .

4. Not sure if it's True ? Not

share forward things That You could be on a "just in case" is True . More damage could it do than good.

Often, we post things to places where we know there are professionals - such as doctors or medical professionals. This could be OK, but make sure You are very clear about your doubts. And Be Careful -That photo-or text-share may be removed at a later time, so That is the context.

5. Check each fact individually

There is a voice memo has been circulating on WhatsApp. The person speaking in The Note Says , You can translate the advice of a "colleague who has a friend" in a hospital. It was on The Bbc , the dozens of people around The World .

But it is a mixture of accurate and inaccurate advice.

If You are sent long lists of advice, it is simply all To Believe in You only because You know for certain That one of The Tips (let's say, for example hand washing) is True .

But this is not always the case.

6. Beware of emotional posts

It's The Stuff , gets us scared, angry, anxious, or cheerful, which tends to spread really viral.

"the fear is one of the biggest driver, which allows misinformation to thrive", Says Claire Wardle, an organization That helps the fight against " online journalists incorrect Information .

Urgent calls for action are designed to ramp up the fear - so Be Careful .

"people want to help your loved ones stay safe, so if You see 'tips to avoid The Virus ! "or" Take You to complete this health! "people want to do what You can to help," she Says .

7. You think about prejudices

share a little, because You know That it is True - or just because You agree with him?

Carl Miller , research director of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Think Tank , Says That we need more contributions, the strengthening of our existing beliefs.

"It is if we our head, nodded, angry That we are most vulnerable," he Says . "That 's when, about everything, we just need to slow down, everything we do online. "
