Gullible or Credible?

In a time where social media has a choke hold over the few age groups to come…the media realizes they have a lot more power in their hands. A simple headline can easily be misconstrued but since we are coming up on the “believe everything you see online” age group, a lot of passive thoughts pop up in gullible minds becoming credible simply because it was retweeted or reposted. We have to teach this next generation that the mentality of going to get it yourself is not only getting your life together but allowing what influences your mind and floods your inner being. If you take these not so credible sources and become a gullible reader then your path is already painted out and there’s been millions of people on that path where you walk. If you look beyond what social media says and what these media outlets let out and actually got out and research yourself you’ll find yourself to be wiser than the people who report these fallacies. So many things have been miscalculated due to the media that we have people that lost their lives(physically and mentally) due to basic allegations. It’s time to sit down and really look into these things. Everything you read is not a fact and everything you watch is not an award winning film production, sometimes the devil is the producer and the cast.
