5 tips to deal with dodgy news stories online

1. Don't believe the hype

Fake news is often designed to be shared far and wide, so just because a lot of people are sharing it, that doesn't mean it's necessarily true.

2. Cross-reference the source

Do you know the website? Do they give sources for their information and have you heard of them and trust them?

3. Think about what you see

Fake news stories often have eye-catching images or sensational headlines - think about it, are they just trying to grab attention?

4. Question what the purpose is

Think about why someone might have written the story. Could they be looking to stir up trouble or misinformation?

5. Think before you share

If you have any suspicion about what you're reading, help stop the spread of fake news by not hitting the share button.
