took the test, got 16/16, 100% correct. i don’t believe the test itself.
I got 14/16.
I was doubting myself hard, especially after reading this stupid ass very real headline earlier: Open Borders Creating Bidenvilles of Homelessness. Who Saw That Coming?
I got 19 out of 20 and I believe it. I don’t know which one I got wrong though, probably the king of morocco one. Why don’t you believe it?
18/20 here, and a bit ‘skeptical’ (-2, 80% on ‘real’ news, but called-out all the ‘fake’ news). better safe than stupid.
seems improbably that i’d get 100%.
I think you can believe it, they talk about which ones were wrong and who usually got them wrong in the article.
I got 19/20 here and was wondering about the same question. I put real on that one.
Same, I put real too.
Took the 20 question version and got 20/20. I think it was an okay way to get a sense on fake news, but at the same time there have been more conspiracy theories peddled by media from all different political leanings over the past 5-10 years. Even a legitimately published headline can be deceiving.
Same.
Conspiracy time: they say you get a high score so that you trust your gut and believe headlines that aren’t true! 😱 /s
That sounds true to me.
