No one can trust the information they heard on social media. Social media is a world wide platform that lets any and every one post what they want, where they want. Therefore everyone is open to make their remarks and rumors. Social media is full of lies and people that are just trying to get attention. This means they would make up anything just for a crowd of people to believe. It is very hard for people to not believe everything they hear because stories can be switched and spread very fast. The only way to know if the things you hear is real is if it is on a news source, valid website, or if it is coming directly from the person who said it.
