<Old people can always use more diversions!>

Hey Bret if you are looking for a diversion how about spending a few minutes learning how to evaluate news sources for signs of credibility – as well as for red flags that signal a source should be avoided.

Here is a list of “trust busters” that indicate you should immediately look elsewhere for credible news.

They include:

False or untrue content
Clickbait tactics
Lack of balance
Manipulated images or videos
State-run or state-sponsored propaganda
Dangerous, offensive and malicious content

What does “credibility” look like, and how can you recognize it...
