More than 70 percent of Americans who follow current events feel concerned about “fake news”. Well, they have every reason to. False or misleading information can be seen everywhere—from online media to print, from TV to radio. But even if we feel overwhelmed by the number of lies we’re bombarded with daily, it shouldn’t discourage us from exposing them.
Luckily, some people who stumbled upon falsehoods said about them online chose to do everyone a public service and call them out. To celebrate their razor-sharp replies, members of the Quit Your BS subreddit decided to document their deeds and share the screenshots with the whole community.
From learning about your non-existent wife to seeing yourself in an ad you didn’t sign up for, take a look at some of the best posts Bored Panda has selected from this page, and upvote the ones you liked the most!
