Reading and Writing Activity IV

Most young people these days (coming from a young person) get their information from social media, such as Instagram and Twitter (especially Twitter). Most of these sources are reliable, as they quote from other sources which we can trust, such as CNN or The New York Times. I think memes can be reliable in most cases. For example, when the whole “WWIII” thing started circling around the internet, I had only found out because of a meme I saw on Twitter. People are very quick to get things trending on the internet. Most, if not all of my friends, get their information from social media as well, and we consider ourselves pretty aware of what happens around the world. I also get some of my information from watching the news in the mornings with my parents before school, but mostly from social media and memes.
