Fake News: How to spot it - BBC My World

Fake news - or misinformation - is flooding the internet but how can you spot it and what can you do about it? Many of us like to share news and stories with our family and friends on social media. But when you see something online, do you check to make sure it's true before you share it?

BBC My World is a new show for young people around the world, brought to you by executive producers Angelina Jolie and the BBC World Service. We've also partnered with Microsoft Education and BBC Learning to show you how the news is made, fact-check stories and spot fake news.
