30 Days Challenge - 14: Rumors
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 wom
an 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.
