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?

Recently with the great evolution of the wide web services, an uncontrolled number of people are publishing
information
without verifying their sources. From my perspective, I agree that individuals should not consider broadcasts published on the
internet
by anonymous as reliable sources for several reasons. The
first
reason for my position is that the individuals publishing the statement mostly are unknown and they could have some personal motivations for fabricating
news
.
This
can be clearly seen not just for marketing purposes but
also
for politicians and anyone who has an interest in deceiving public opinion.
For instance
, there are numerous numbers of guided media persons, actors and idols with a huge base of fans who follow and trust them.
Therefore
, it is not safe to trust
news
from
such
a category of media personnel that can mislead followers over the
internet
. Another reason for not accounting for
internet
news
is that most of the website platforms are accessible to an unlimited number of people.
Hence
, the resources of the published
news
cannot be verified easily.
Also
, the speed of spreading
information
over the online sphere is incredible.
For example
, a car accident report in Japan can be uploaded and published before even making sure of the safety of the drivers and the
information
about it transmitted to a USA citizen.
As a result
, wrong
information
about a correct event could be published unintentionally. To conclude, the amount of
news
found over the
internet
is extremely amazing.
However
, individuals must not trust all of it because there might be disseminated through untrusted people or wrongly being analyzed.
