There’re five factors which contribute to the spread of fake news: political gain; misreporting; going viral(病毒式传播); financial gain; and “not letting the truth get in the way of a good story".
1. When the Titanic disaster happened, Telegrams stating that all the passengers from the Titanic had been rescued were reported as fact in newspapers, before the full extent of the tragedy came to light.
2. In the early 20th century it took years rather than seconds but the principle was the same. People shared the photographs around, not checking the accuracy of them, either wanting to believe they were real, or just because they were a novelty,
It's long been believed that the motto of Fleet Street was “never let the facts get in the way of a good story", illustrated by a news story earlier in 2017 that Jeremy Corbyn had refused to bow his head to the Queen at the state opening of Parliament. Only later did it become known that protocol(礼节) doesn’t require bowing to the Queen in these situations. 3.
The final two factors for a story to be fake news often go hand in hand: as a political tool, and a must to make profit. 4. Easier than you'd think. The websites with fake news can easily get astonishing hits, which then attracts advertisements and thus earn the website owners a nice profit .
The good news is that a number of new media organizations are trying to encourage us to think about where news comes from, who puts it out, and whether anyone can gain politically, financially or ideologically by it, before we share it around social media. 5.
A. How does that make money?
B. How do people gain politically?
C. But that didn’t matter, the story was out.
D. Here is a good example of misreporting.
E. That was how a good story came into being.
F. Going viral is another typical characteristic of fake news.
G. Thus we can give it certain respectability and trustworthiness.
