Bruh, that’s the whole point of posting an article lol. The facts are supposed to be compiled neatly in there for everyone to read. Yet yours has none and your now being called out on it. Find a better article  :thumbsup:

If the article was more than just an opinion piece, maybe I would have had something to dispute.  Instead, it was ambiguous, arbitrary, and requires the reader to INFER what they are claiming constitutes fake news, misinformation, etc.

If you believe only the Liberal Media is fake news, then you THINK you agree with the premise.  If, however, you believe only the people disagreeing with Dr. Fauci's "science", then you also think you agree with the premise.

If you have an open mind and prefer to have journalists provide the facts of the story rather than conclusions and inferences, you're left wondering where the meat is that was omitted from this nothing-burger.

Google is a magical place.  I was merely adding to the discussion, not presenting a research paper on the subject.

Show me where ANY of the three new links above have anything to do with Canada.  A word search in all three articles returned the word "Canada" exactly zero times.  Your first post was an article about how Canada is being affected by American information outlets.  So.....

I'm so glad I do not rely on you to "do my homework."  You suck at it.

Google is not the answer to all the questions you may have.  Learn how to read and think for yourself.  Well, if I had your mentality, I'd probably rely on a big tech algorithm to tell me what to think and what information is worth knowing, too.  A man's got to know his limitations.   :geekdanc:

The whole point of the article was that fakenews on vaccines were spreading out of America to the world.  Not only Canada.  Last time I checked other countries have internet too.  :geekdanc:

Nope.  Try reading your own article.

Quote
Misinformation about COVID-19 is spreading from the United States into Canada,
undermining efforts to mitigate the pandemic. A study led by McGill University shows that Canadians
who use social media are more likely to consume this misinformation, embrace false beliefs
about COVID-19, and subsequently spread them.

Many Canadians believe conspiracy theories,

Boy, you really do have an active imagination.

World....
Canada is outside of America, and is not unique to the internet.  All other countries would "suffer" from the same misinformation.

Proves that you failed to read the article.  What you wrote is not what the article says.

I used an article, that happens to be from Canada but applies to the rest of the world.  Sorry I have to do all your thinking.  I will be sure to attempt to link more articles if my target audience is yourself.

The article is about a study from a CANADIAN University and is about the impact of US information on Canadians.

The article uses the terms Canada and Canadian a combined total of 27 times.

The article uses the words World or Global exactly zero times.

You can't extrapolate what that one university study concluded to the entire planet.  Do you think Russia or Venezuela are changing their COVID-19 opinions based on what the US is distributing online?

You're out of gas.  You THINK the article applies to the world, so it must -- even though the article itself makes no mention of any conclusions outside of Canda.

Just stop.

Polish Pastor chases cops out of church on Easter weekend: “Get out! You Nazis!”

The people must rise up and push back against this sort of tyranny. I know the cops feel like they are just doing their job but they can resist doing something they know is not right in the first place. Bravo Pastor!

Thanks for posting this!!!
