When elders hear that you can pick your news, they feel it's odd considering that before everything was written in physical copies. Everything was forced on us.
Sometimes the news aren't reliable. They might be tainted by media cooperations and corruption. It is important to go back to get the original news that hasn't been affected.
Check a few times a day, but not every minute. Let things unfold in time.
You must know how to separate fact from opinion. Look for words like, think, likely, etc.
Make sure your news is supported and legitimate before spreading it.
I think a big idea from this clip is to be aware that not everything on the news is completely true. We need to have techniques to figure out when something has been altered and when it is true fact. We can't just blindly believe everything we read.
How do you choose your news?
