Further evidence of impact of FAKE NEWS AND frankly have seen so much of it on here and the subject of this article below was posted on here.

People believe this crap and it is dangerous.

"Eric Tucker, a 35-year-old co-founder of a marketing company in Austin, Tex., had just about 40 Twitter followers. But his recent tweet about paid protesters being bused to demonstrations against President-elect Donald J. Trump fueled a nationwide conspiracy theory — one that Mr. Trump joined in promoting.

Mr. Tucker's post was shared at least 16,000 times on Twitter and more than 350,000 times on Facebook. The problem is that Mr. Tucker got it wrong. There were no such buses packed with paid protesters.

But that didn't matter.

While some fake news is produced purposefully by teenagers in the Balkans or entrepreneurs in the United States seeking to make money from advertising, false information can also arise from misinformed social media posts by regular people that are seized on and spread through a hyperpartisan blogosphere.

There are childrens fables about lying and wanting to believe thus we do not check, and so much in this campaign goes to this point.

This needs fixed but not sure how you convince lazy uninformed people to read more and insure they are getting facts before flying off the handle.

Sorry if that sounds cruel but this particular story was posted and repeated on here and EVEN WITH PROOF it was a lie, it continues and to those people I simply ask...grow up, get informed and stop reading crap to make you feel good...read and investigate.
