Friday Frustrations

Let's talk about "Fake News!" 

I've had it! How in the heck are you supposed to know what is really true anymore. It's so frustrating!

One morning, on Facebook (or as I like to call it: FAKEBOOK!), there were 3 stories that I just didn't know whether they were true or not. So, I had to look them up.


1. Travis Kelsey walked off The View stage. 

NOT TRUE!

Travis Kelsey did NOT walk off the Vew stage. IN fact the panel complimented him on his diplomatic response regarding a statement they launched at him about Trump attending a game.


2. Bob Dylan and Joan Baez got married!

NOT TRUE!

Bob Dylan and Joan Baez did NOT just get married! They had a tumultuous relationship in the ’60’s but that ended then.


3. Then you add the ones about people who have died—all BS! If famous person has died, it’s all over the news.


What I've learned is that if the only place you are hearing about something is social media, it's FAKE NEWS! 


Does artificial intelligence have anything to do with Fake News? I don't know. I can't really wrap my brain around artificial intelligence.


Then, I almost fell for this one:

What a show this would be! It's FAKE! 


I just really want to know who is doing this. And for what purpose? 


All I know is that it's so hard to figure out what is true anymore. There are so many lies out there. It's so darn frustrating!
