Nowadays with the internet better established as a mainstream medium for accessing information and learning the news, the lack of habits and norms in most societies adapting to it, has led to many confused as to what is real and what is false. Though “fake news” existed before it became an internet meme, now the threat of — misinformation, disinformation, propaganda and editorials framed as straight news —exists more than ever before.

The solution refers back to the problem; more need to get better at genuine investigative research.

Long gone are the days when you could rely on leaders in journalism at the forefront of the mainstream. The mainstream media nowadays struggles to compete with the traffic and engagement of independent creators on shoestring budgets, while many such established outlets from MSNBC to CNN and FOX have been caught lying by omission, spinning unchecked “facts” often without any reference to actual reality nor any apology for every single case doing so.
