With An Election On The Horizon, Older Adults Get Help Spotting Fake News

 

At the Schweinhaut Senior Center in suburban Maryland, about a dozen seniors gather around iPads and laptops, investigating a suspicious meme of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

 

Plastered over her image, in big, white block letters, a caption reads:

 

"California will receive 13 extra seats in Congress by including 10 million illegal aliens in the 2020 U.S. Census."

 

The seniors are participating in a workshop sponsored by the nonprofit Senior Planet called "How to Spot Fake News." As instructed, they pull up a reputable fact-checking site like Snopes or FactCheck.org and, within a few minutes, identify the meme is peddling fake news.

 

"It's right there!" 86-year-old Marlene Cianci tells the class. "Just a two-step thing and there it was!"
