Russia and NATO Scare


It is very hard to tell real from fake these days. It is becoming increasingly harder with the skills people have to make and manipulate pictures or videos to make them seem real. This is what happened when a video spread about a nuclear war outbreak between Russia and NATO. The video seemed to show a man in the BBC studio reporting about a missile attack, it even showed a clip of the Queen being evacuated. “We’d like to make absolutely clear that it’s a fake and does not come from the BBC.” BBC stated. Stories like these are not new but are still a very scary thing. How can we tell what is fake from the truth nowadays?
