Discussion 4: Internet's Believing

How often I took what is on the internet as truth without thinking much about it?...my answer is none. The reason why I say none, because internet can come from anywhere. Every source that from internet can be added by everyone. The easiest example that we can get is from social media like facebook. Trough social media like facebook people can spread any news whether is the truth or even a fake news.

Not only that, on the internet, people can published false statement that damages a person’s reputation. By spreading the false statement it can make people confused or dissatisfaction about something that they don’t get it. People can twist the story or even they make up the story. I’ve read one article that internet can make people in fight with each other because of the make up story.

To me what is on the internet its our self conscious to believe or ignore what is on the internet is whether true or not. For me, the best way is wait till I read the newspaper, than I will believe the news that come from newspaper.

  1. Hey I got to agree on you about the internet information can be manipulated and twisted but it also can be applied to newspaper right? The newspaper can too manipulated and twisted because of the social control of politic and media company. Like UMNO have done example. To me, newspaper can't be trusted these day. I hate politics. :D
