30 Days Challenge - 14: Rumors
Please correct me! Thanks!
Today I read an article about rumors, which reminds me of an accident happened in China. About one month ago, there was a bus plunged from the bridge to the river. When the news came out, everyone was guessing about the cause of the accident. Someone said it was because a woman driver drove onto the wrong side of the road. After that, it seemed all the netizens started to blame the women because they believed the information easily. Also, it catered to many men‘s opinion: Women were bad drivers. However, the monitor showed the accident was not caused by the woman, but caused by a passenger who attacked the bus driver. People are biased, they are easy to believe in the news which in accordance with their opinions, but actually the news is not true. I have worked in the journalism industry, and I quickly checked every news before I published the news, but my colleague wasn't as responsible as I did, which also resulted in rumors came into the public.

Please correct me! Thanks!Today I read an article about rumors which reminds me of an accident that happened in China. About one month ago, there was a bus that plunged into the river. When the news came out, everyone started conjecturing about the cause of the accident. Someone said it was because a woman driver drove onto the wrong side of the road. After that it seemed all the netizens started to blame the woman because they believed the information easily. Also, It also catered to many men‘s opinion: Women are bad drivers. However, the monitor showed that the accident was not caused by the woman, but caused by a passenger who had attacked the bus driver. People are biased. They are easy to easily believe in the news which is in accordance with their opinions but actually even when the news is actually not true. I have worked in the journalism industry and I quickly checked every news (article/report) before I published the news. But my colleague wasn't as responsible as I was which also resulted in rumors (came into the public.) I'm not sure what this means here.

Please correct me! Thanks!Today I red an article about rumors, which reminded me of an accident that happened in China. About one month ago, there was a bus which plunged from the bridge to the river. When the news came out, everyone was guessing the cause of the accident. Some people said it was due to (because of) a woman driver which drove on the wrong side of the road. After that, it seemed all the netizens (I learned a new word today) started to blame the women because they believed the information easily.
Also, it catered to many men‘s opinion: Women were bad drivers. However, the monitor showed the accident was not caused by the woman, but by a passenger who attacked the bus driver. People are biased, they easily believe the news which are accordance with their opinions, but actually the news is not true (fake). I worked in the journalism industry, and I performed quick check for every events before I published the news, but my colleague wasn't as responsible as me, which also resulted in rumors came into the public.

I agree, always check two sources before broadcasting a news.
The search engines like google of facetime actually provide to the user the information "they like", therefore it enhance event more their opinion (no matter if they these opinion are grounded or not...).
