So what do you think about the prevalence of fake news? For the most part we have done a good job of calling it out around here, but how much have you seen around your friends and family on social media? I just found this whole thing interesting. I don't think it influenced the election, those that fall for these things were going to vote the way they did with or without the fake news, but it's still concerning.
Here was an interesting story based on an interview with someone behind the fake news. http://www.npr.org/sections/alltechconsidered/2016/11/23/503146770/npr-finds-the-head-of-a-covert-fake-news-operation-in-the-suburbs
