Trust Starts with You

Sure, we have plenty of access to what looks like honest news. But more information at our fingertips comes hand-in-hand with a rise in misinformation – and worse, deliberate deception.

How can we know whether to trust the “news” that pops up on our phones and screens?

How to Fight Misinformation

  1. Pause before you believe information you see or that is shared with you from a news site unfamiliar to you.
    Use the 8 Trust Indicators to determine whether or not they come from a reliable site founded in journalistic integrity
  2. Do not engage with posts containing suspicious information
    Sharing, commenting, or reacting to these posts boosts their visibility
  3. Share the 8 Trust Indicators
    With this tool, you can help others find out for themselves whether or not the news stories and sources they engage with are reliable

Thank you for helping to make trustworthy news easier to find.
