    • We’re back with another Pew Research quiz: can we correctly identify factual and opinion statements?

    • Pew administered this quiz to Americans to see how good they are at recognizing fake news. Not shockingly, they’re pretty bad at it.

    • We fess up about what fake news headlines have fooled us in the past, and provide our favorite tips and tricks for verifying that the news we’re sharing is indeed real.

    • Fake news isn’t just a politics problem - we dive into all the ways in which fake news infiltrates all aspects of life.
