With all the news flying around today, it's more important than ever that we use care when sharing information.
In the heat of the moment, it's easy to post articles or boost posts we might not otherwise share.
Well-meaning people may post #misinformation, believing it's accurate.
Bad actors (including Russia, Iran and China along with U.S. R-wing) will be pumping #propaganda and #disinformation to confuse and muddy the waters.
