Fake News. It's Your Fault. | Christina Nicholson | TEDxBocaRaton

[@monicalouie8734]

This was great! Thanks for shining a light on what so many don't realize. The clicks, the comments, the shares -- it all communicates to the networks and the algorithms what people want to see more of.

[@MediaMavenAndMore]

Thanks Monica :)

@@MediaMavenAndMore yeah stop sharing CNN fake news

[@rebecca_stone]

This is an OK talk for its time. I'm also an ex newsroom journalist, and was lucky enough to work at some of the world's most reputable and famous titles, also for 10+ years. It was sad to have to switch careers but I could see where media was heading. People complain about "the media", but they get the poor quality media they deserve - by expecting their news for free. It takes talent, resources and skill to create quality news. If people don't want to pay to sustain that, you end up with the dross we have now. Rather than complain, subscribe to a media outlet.

[@Speakingdotcom]

This is a great talk... good summary of the issues with social media and how the "audience" contributes to spreading false information.

[@ThriftyAV]

A former co-worker of mine spreading some truth here... Use care before you share, indeed!

[@tinkalsinha495]

I will share(this) with care !

Well there is no arguing that. bang on.

Great Job Girl! Proud of you!

Thanks.

[@johnwinchester6934]

@@MediaMavenAndMore I basically just heard it is the consumers fault for falling for the fake news your media corporations are pushing daily. Real journalism is dead and you people know it. Hey but "orange man bad" right?!

[@gspaulsson]

​@@johnwinchester6934 "Orange man bad" is a right-wing fake-news meme, intended to fend off all awareness of what Trump is actually up to. So congratulations, you have fallen for the fake news your media corporations - Fox, Newsmax, OAN, Breitbart etc. etc. push to you daily. Ask yourself this: do they EVER say anything negative about Trump or positive about Biden? No. Trump is God, Biden is Satan. And that is death to democracy. Try for a week watching exclusively media that you don't like: CNN, MSNBC. Guaranteed, it will open your eyes.

Thank you for the information mam and thanks to tedx

The word “us” would’ve been better then using “you”

[@barbarac.417]

Great info. Too many people share "headlines" that give the wrong impression without even reading the entire story or seeing if it's true.

[@MediaMavenAndMore]

Thanks so much Barbara.

[@evolgenius1150]

Yes it drives me nuts! Like, did you even read this? The article doesn't even come close to imply what the headline says outright. Blows my mind.

[@charleswest6372]

The net opened doors to every liar imaginable. Anyone can be reporters.

This is really cool stuff. I am a journalism student and I already see this playing out with the other students I hang around.

[@julianciahaconsulting8663]

journalists have become the Enemies of the People. Your profession once admirable makes me sick now. Propaganda, Lies, Fear Mongering and Censorship - thats what the media does now.

[@heavestlus8764]

how do you research or even understand if you hate it or not, if you never click on it? i think we need better solution to this paradox

[@edsknife]

I think it's fine for high engagement to be a reward for fake news; the engagement shows us what ideas we wanna fight. MSNBC gets tons of engagement for their worst videos, and the comments sections are immeasurably valuable when that happens.

[@ceceespeut7620]

I learned so much hearing you talk - Brilliant! Glad to have met you!

[@MediaMavenAndMore]

Thanks so much :)

[@afewgreyhairs4500]

Very good

[@frankmoreno9]

Very nice. I agree we're all part of the solution or the problem. Know the true facts and think before you share or comment. Most importantly if you can't be nice or respectful, better to stay silent

[@MediaMavenAndMore]

Best comment ever!

[@Cod4Wii]

There's only 2 fake news that I know of.. The Onion and InfoWars.

[@elsainnamorato2231]

Doesn't this country stand up for honesty and integrity? she is only 50% right the other halfs fault is the media and there should be accountable.

[@bobbybigby4587]

You have very valuable and valid points. However, calling social media = to media is excessive at least. Also, positive stories shouldn't be youtube click bate of cute pets. That's not positive news. Finally big media is still responsible for ALL of their creators.

[@damaori]

DIVERSION PEOPLE Not hitting the issue we pursuing Nice point tho

[@thematt5325]

You’re right. It’s my fault...😭

[@DemetriusSorvo]

I'm beginning to grow suspicious that The Onion might be fake news.

Dont act like this isnt part of your design, its all about the clicks.

Thanks for the comment to boost engagement! (You know, that thing I talked about in this video.) Have a great day.

[@DagAreHalland]

If only this was common knowledge.

[@DagAreHalland]

@Noe the ted talk still remains valid. I work with digital marketing so I can vouch for what she is saying. I've watched and read anywhere from 200-500 hours about various "conspiracy" theories, so your list of topics isn't new to me.
