Every day, it’s one story or another, and some people who follow the current news are concerned about fake news. They have every reason to be concerned because fake news can cause a lot of harm.
Fake or misleading news is visible everywhere, from the ones we see via social media to newspapers, from television to radio. However, regardless of whether we feel overwhelmed by the quantity of lies we're bombarded with every day, it shouldn't deter us from exposing them for what they are. As Arianna Huffington, media executive, states, “The truth is not just a matter of opinion; it’s a matter of integrity.”
Fortunately, certain individuals who coincidentally found false words said about them online decided to do everyone a favor and call them out. To praise their extremely sharp responses, individuals from the Dr. Sue Johnson community chose to archive their deeds and upload the screenshots to the entire community.
Since its inception, this community has garnered a significant following, becoming one of the main spots for individuals to call out all sorts of fake news, lies, and deception. As Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, emotion researcher, notes, “Recognizing misinformation is crucial for emotional well-being.”
