Nowadays anyone can post news on the internet. As a result, we cannot trust information we read there. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In
this
Modern times, the internet has become an integral part of one's life and the world cannot be imagined without it. However
, content
, which is available online and is accessed on different electronic media
platforms
are not reliable since it can be posted by anyone. I completely agree with this
point of view and in the next
coming paragraphs, I shall explain reasons why this
information
cannot be regarded as a viable genuine source.
In today's world, current happenings around the world and general affairs are spread quickly and are watched as well as read by millions of viewers online on social media
platforms
like Youtube, Facebook, Whatapp and Instagram. Nevertheless
, all the content
and information
can be neither be trusted nor accepted because anyone can make a profile on it and share any information
. Therefore
, without content
checking, it can be circulated on a huge number of media
platforms
by its users, who are completely unaware of its genuineness and fairness. For example
, during Election times in India fake news
is circulated by ruling party candidates against opposition such
as corruption, money laundering, tax evasion and other charges, Consequently
, it built's a fine image of him to garner political advantage including votes and win elections.
Moreover
, most of the fabricated and made up stories that pop up on social media
and news
channels can neither be valued nor circulated because their accurateness should be verified first
by the national press agency before it is to be released to the general public. However
, stories such
as hurting religious sentiments of minority groups, communally sensitive information
, abusive and personal defamation cases should not be circulated on the internet as, it will lead to social unrest, tense environments and rivalry built up among different sections of the society. Hence
, the General public should obey and access only trusted news
resources and channels. so, that one cannot follow fake and unreliable content
.
To sum up, despite many merits of accessing online news
such
as quickness and convenience, users should be aware of all fake and unfaithful internet sources, which always spread fake news
and create social unrest and they should obey only content
that is
from genuine websites or online social media
platforms
