False Information In Social Media

We’ve all been guilty of sharing false information or fake news at some point or another. Sadly, this is not an uncommon occurrence on social media, but nevertheless annoying, because it can spread so quickly (plus it’s so difficult to correct).

Case in point:  the following video, which has been attributed to HRH Prince George, the son of (Prince) William and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and the grandson of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.  (I’m sure I’ve messed up their official titles, since proper forms of address for The Royals is not typically covered in standard American education.)  Pip pip, cheerio, give me a scone — dilly dilly!

Actually, this cute little boy named Tanner does exist, but he is not a Royal.  However, he certainly is one smart little cookie!  Here is a clip from his appearance on the Steve Harvey show.

Lesson (hopefully) learned.  Always check your sources!
