Misinformation often spreads because people react to headlines before reading or verifying the underlying story.

Before sharing dramatic claims, it is good practice to ask:

• Is the source reputable?
• Does another trusted news organization report the same information?
• Is there an official statement or video?
• Does the headline clearly explain what happened?

If the answer to these questions is no, the claim should be treated cautiously until confirmed.
