I don't think anyone thinks that a picture of a celebrity online or in a magazine is genuine...do they? They are always touched up, blemishes removed etc etc which is why you get other websites showing "oh my God you won't fucking believe pictures of "so and so" without make up"...
The thing is...I rarely watch a news programme. Or read a newspaper. Or indeed take my views and opinions from youtubers. In fact most of the world passes me by. Except for the bits I search out. Did you know they have found a Roman Villa in Warwick and are going to rebury it under a new school? That's my kind of news. I'm not that interested in Trump, May, Corbyn and all the other posturers in the world. They have little or no direct effect on my life.
Am I normal? Or in a minority? Do people genuinely believe everything they read/ watch and actively seek out news/ fake news in a multitude of ways?
Sounds normal to me. I don't watch the news and actually picked up a paper today for the first time in years.
Did you know that Marlon Brando fucked Richard Prior and that he would apparently fuck anything, even a mailbox.
