I am so dead tired. Before I end my day, I checked some news on Yahoo and this what I found. A piece of fake news is circulating on Tweeter. The photo was enhanced to make it bigger in size. I am not going in detail and attached the link for you to enjoy reading it. I do not want to spoil the information. All I know it weighs 1.5 kilograms and it will be a big feast for some Chinese people. It was claimed that it is the cause of coronavirus. What do you think about this fake news?
The bats are supposedly mentioned as "human-sized" and the pictures have freaked out netizens. Well, we wouldn't blame them entirely as the pictures definitely look scary, but are they for real? Yes, these are known as Giant Golden-Crowned Flying Fox. Whil

It was eye-catching. Some people are really spreading wrong information on social media. They are so irresponsible.

I don't really understand why people make fake news like that. It's so useless and just spreading hoax.

I wish that somehow all the fake news could be taken off the web. It causes so much disruption.

I agree. If there is a software system that can detect or monitor them, then it would be fake news free for all of us.

I agree. If it is a human-size, it will be a 'manananggal.'

That is the reason why I don't read news more often.

Sometimes I do not watch or even read the news. But then, I need to know what is going in this world though. I just do it at random though.
