Which of these sentences from the article would be MOST important to include in a summary of the article?
If you are active on social media, you've probably done this at least once: shared something based on the headline without actually reading the link.
ABC News, the television network, has a website at abcnews.go.com. And ABC News, the fake news site, can be found at abcnews.com.co.
The fake "ABC News" does have a "contact us" page – but it shows a picture of a single-family home in Topeka, Kansas.
Combating the spread of fake news begins with you, the reader. If it seems too fantastic, it probably is.
