I've been meaning to cover this topic for a long time now. A lot of research went into making this. From watching magical cat videos, keeping in touch with families and friends, easy online sign ups, promoting our businesses to consuming news, social media has already become an invincible member in our changing society, so much so that it has the power to change governments to alter our perspectives and the way we think, act and feel.
From Hong Kong protests, BLM protests to Coronavirus we are consuming our news mostly from social media. In fact sharing news in social media has become a phenomenon of increasing social, political and economic importance. Anyone of us can produce content, report incidents and create click worthy news stories.
Many a times, I feel like consuming news is not even a choice. It is being force fed to us globally, and with the rise of social media, it is proving to be incredibly hard to not fall into the vicious trap of click-baiting and fake news.
Be vigilant, be mindful and be aware!
