Warning Signs of Clickbait

Many misleading posts share common characteristics, including:

  • Vague headlines with no names or details.
  • Emotional wording intended to provoke a reaction.
  • Phrases like “See More,” “Find Out Who It Is,” or “Check the Comments.”
  • No links to official statements or credible reporting.

These features don’t automatically make a story false, but they are signs that the information should be verified.

Before You Share

If you come across a dramatic headline, ask yourself:

  • Does it identify the person involved?
  • Does it cite a trustworthy source?
  • Are several reputable news outlets reporting the same event?
  • Does the article include verifiable facts rather than speculation?

Taking a moment to answer these questions can help prevent the spread of false information.
