I found an article that extends on group 5’s point that influential people were part of the 9/11 attack. This article cites that “more than half of Americans believe the government is concealing information about the 9/11 attacks.” #RHUB100 https://t.co/p88138rRrJ

Group 1’s presentation was very well organized. Each source they used was well analyzed. With the source about the “moon landing wasn’t real,” I agree that it has a vague presence and false made up evidence. I found another article #RHUB100 https://t.co/oNNcLZ8Ucj

@andydyerr Likewise, this article also reveals that in order to encourage scrutiny the audience needs to be in a skeptical mind-set and limit the description of the lie. However, not only it reveals the channels that fake news spreads, but how to expose misinformation. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

The article goes against experts and history. #RHUB100 https://t.co/HluW707ApO

BBC’s claim that “made up stories were causing confusion about the basic facts” help show how Daily Express uses this throughout their article and even in their title in order to get their audience to engage and believe misleading facts.

both phenomena seem to involve a suspension of critical thinking. #RHUB100

Soll’s article discusses Andersen’s argument that false information has been seen throughout the years. I think It’d be interesting to see a group cover a topic from the past, such as Salem witch trials. Salem witch trials and the consumption of fake news,

@Adarling66 People create their own truths. We get encouraged to believe what the rest of society starts believing. I agree if facts and reality is unfavorable we detract from it. People are not being judged for their “truths,” but instead society encourages these “truths” #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

In the article “The Spread of true and false news online” authors Vosoughi, Roy and Aral from MIT extend Andersen’s claim that false information has become a common political strategy. Vosoughi used a data set of rumor cascades to prove that falsehood diffused faster. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

@pananaboop Reading his article was overwhelming, however he effectively supports his argument by appealing to logos, he provides subtitles so his readers dont get lost and sets his article in chronological order. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

Why does Andersen include religion and politics in his article? #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

As I was reading, the subtitles Andersen provided helped me understand what he was going to talk about next. However, when I read “How the right became more unhinged than the left,”I dont know if it was bc I was skimming through it but who’s at the far right and left? #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

@angelicasz00 Yes, even though both authors assume that the audience doesn’t agree with the credibility of Ancient Aliens, they clarify this assumption with appeals: Shemer appealing to logos whereas Switek is appealing to pathos, which in turn builds their credibility #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

In both articles, Switek and Shermer explain with a critical tone the illogic reasoning behind “Ancient Aliens.” With their negative diction they prove that the show is fictional and not reliable. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

@Adarling66 I agree with you, Carr’s tone can also be seen as informative. Adding point of views from educated and respectable people builds up his credibility. #rhub100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

It stood out to me how effectively Carr uses evidence such as anecdotes, credible sources and studies to support his argument that technology affects the process of thought. I believe this was an effective strategy because it builds Carr’s credibility #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

@StevenM45671313 I agree with you, it is not clear who his intended audience is, but with the evidence he provides, as readers we can assume that he writes for a much older audience. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

Andersen in his article “You Say You Want a Devolution?” makes the assumption that society has lacked creativity over the years. This assumption makes him see life through a specific lense and strengthens his argument with well known examples. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

@MonicaArreola99 I agree with you. In addition, he adds his mother as an example. This proves his credibility regarding the use of writing and technology over the years. #RHUB100

Thompson informs his audience that the “generation effect,” where writing down information allows you to retain it easier, improves your memory and by using effective strategies, such as studies and experiments, he manages to build credibility. #RHUB100

[Karen Sandoval @kjs0703]

@andydyerr According to psychologists, Pam Mueller and Daniel, believe “students on laptops usually just mindlessly type everything a professor says. Those taking notes by hand have to actively listen and decide what's important.. Laptop users remember less information later on” #RHUB100
