I know the 24-hour #news cycle can make it feel like we have to post immediately to avoid being lost or left behind but remember to always double check the veracity of explosive news before posting.
If you want to reduce your risk of sharing #disinformation, do a quick search to see what other news outlets are reporting. News #media is extremely swift. If an event narrative for something huge is only coming from one or a few sources, take a closer look at where the information came from.
