Can the Scientific Community Better Respond to 'Fake News' in Science?

in fakenews •  8 years ago 

It's not so much in reference to all fake news, but more the science news that tends to be spread based on hopes of cures and such. But indeed, there is science news about bad things as well (the other side), and that is indeed sensational for people to spread, but not "hope or positivity" hehe. Thank you for that feedback. I didn't think of that angle ;)

    I think when you look at the less sophisticated propagators of this type of news are equally interested in the doom and gloom type of developments in the scientific community. It's one of the reasons I'm so tired of facebook and other similar platforms.
