Good afternoon.I have hearing so much about fake news lately. Why the invasion of this.Can you spot fake news?not sure if I can. I know that they have fake obituary .This I can spot. Some of the library have been holding class how to spot fake news. They are given a presentation on this.I would love to hear about this. But it is not in our area. Here is another plant from Mike collection of orchids. He has a total of seven and all are surviving. ________________________________________ Have a good one

Well you also have that a-hole calling CNN and other sources "fake news" when they aren't just because he doesn't like what they are saying.

That is also a huge problem. That story does not line up with the way I think therefore we will make it fake when it is not. How Hilary lost the election.

Fake news is basically news you read on most social media. Not the news or news media. The twist on this only came about since the election. Not every channel is honest and we all know that Fox news is way off base with the truth. They have been caught in lies many times. However, that being said, social media is what they mean. Lets face it, most people post things online with their opinion. And others actually believe it. It all comes down to perception.

They are getting better that ever at it are they not. lol One really has to do a lot of research in it and learn to separate rumor from facts the sources have proven. Most credible sources will say this is a rumor and many fake news places conveniently leave that part out.

Another lovely orchid. It would be good to know more about fake news. It seems we can't depend on anything any more.

Whenever my girlfriend reads me news she sees on Facebook, I always ask if it's from a credible source.

@amadeo There are times I know it is fake news and made up just to have a story in a paper. I go online to certain news places only in Israel that I believe in.

Soon we won't know what is real from what is fake -- and that goes for a lot of other things.
