Now, many news outlets openly discuss and tout their political leanings. It has created an environment that makes understanding our confirmation biases even more difficult.
politics has a negative effect on journalism and, I believe confirmation bias has lots to do with others beliefs.
There is a lot of information out there about media bias
I agree the media is very involved with politics and how others should be viewed in our society.
Filter bubbles are outside forces that affect the information we take in. But, there's also a lot of stuff going on in our own brains that influences the way we take in and interpret information. This is called confirmation bias.
I feel like this goes along with stereotypes about people that we tend to make up. We can even talk ourselves out of good ideas or plans because of conformational bias.
These accusations can lead to a general mistrust of all media sources,
I believe this I can not trust the news anymore because they have lied so much about important events.
the sharing of fake news or using it to support an argument diminishes your standing and credibility among your friends, peers, and colleagues.
I have used this in highschool when people were spreading fake rumors about my friends. It helped me out because not only did I support my friends but I may have changed how there bullies talk about others in negative ways.
We have seen misinformation and fake news threaten democracy (political mistrust) and even threaten public health (COVID-19 crisis).
My history textbook explains this crisis as the worst epidemic to hit America and, that thousands of bodies were dead. I think they over exaggerated this a lot.
126,000 rumors were spread by more than 3 million people.
I believe this everyday i get onto social media there is always something negative for fake.
Sources that provide generally credible content, but use exaggerated, misleading, OR questionable headlines, social media descriptions, and/or images. These sources may also use sensational language to generate interest, clickthroughs, and shares, but their content is typically verifiable.
I have fallen into clickbait before expeccaly on youtube they will put anything out there to get your attention.
hat I thought were some of the best sources so you can get a well-rounded picture of misinformation and fake news
even places like wikipedia have created false news and this goes along with social media.
we must care about these things and we must be armed with the tools to recognize when something seems off.
I agree if we are not cautious about the information we receive it could lead to bigger problems and misconceptions.
the Russian tactic of spreading misinformation; it's a different kind of warfare that's happening not only in the United States, but around the world.
I believe the united states isn't the only country spreading rumors. I've heard about false accusations coming from china and it spread into the United States.
Sources that come from a particular point of view and may rely on propaganda, decontextualized information, and opinions distorted as facts.
Social media influencers definitely have extreme bias I feel like everyone shares their options and not facts.
Rumor: Sources that traffic in rumors, gossip, innuendo, and unverified claims.
rumors were a huge problem in my high school they spread on the internet and in person. I definitely feel like social media made this issue worse.

We can't blame all of this on Social Media.
very true people can make up lies and rumors and spread them just as quick as the internet can.
Sources that actively promote racism, misogyny, homophobia, and other forms of discrimination.
I feel like hate and racism are more drawn out on social media platforms.
There are different types of misinformation and different reasons for spreading it.
I feel like social media has spread lots of fake news and so had the media in general.
I have a personal computer and/or smartphone with a data plan and internet access.
I feel like everyone in America had access to the internet but actually having a computer is less likely unless you are a student or online business manager i didn't receive my computer until this year.
I am able to purchase textbooks for all of my courses.
throughout my college experience i have always had access to online textbook and the public library.
I had to write research papers in my high school
i always had to write research papers in english I even did things like annotate articles and books.
My high school prepared me for college-level research (example: citing sources, plagiarism, finding & evaluating sources).
I was always prepared to research any important topics and try and evaluate my sources with citing. Has anyone went to college without any knowledge of citing?

However, there is a lot of good information on professional writing in this chapter that may come in handy in other classes or as you search for employment, so you might want to bookmark it for future use.
I agree many jobs look for people that can read and write fluently. your resume should be very clear and uniform.
Use jokes sparingly since they are often misunderstood.
I never thought of using jokes before in my writing I may try this next time.

Emailing started small in the 1960s and became more widespread by the 1990s. Today the idea of going a day without emails is incomprehensible to many people, both professionally and personally.

I am actually nervous that AI intelligent robots may take over most of the jobs like uber, grocery stores. We already have the Self driving car called the tesla.

Students, even those in high school, enjoy information privileges that aren't afforded to the general public.
I always valued our technology that we were able to use throughout the semester. I could never afford a computer on my own and highschool always provided me with useful technology.
Our access to technology gives us advantages in accessing information that many around the world do not have
This is very true because many countries to not have access to the internet or technology.
only a privileged few have access to certain types of scholarly writings.
I don't agree with this statement you can access scholarly readings on google, websites, articles with technology today you can access a lot of information.
The goal of this assignment is to get you to think more deeply about how we are consuming information.
annotations help me remember what i just read and how my brain reacts to the information.
