CBC News found an article on WE NEWS about a shooting that purportedly happened in the Yukon, but the sources were actually from the city of Yukon in Oklahoma.

It's getting harder to find trusted real news in the ever growing sea of fake news.

    TBF my human ass didn't know there was an Ontario in the USA and posted the toilet paper warehouse fire story to a Province of Ontario community.

    I think AI is just exposing how intellectually lazy we can be when nothing holds us accountable for not fact checking before amplifying ideas.
