Mark Grabowski has been active in the fight against fake news.
In December, the professor's syndicated newspaper column addressed "How to handle 'fake news'." The column addressed how to tell if a story is legit and offered tips on how readers can be better informed.
"Ultimately consumers will be the gatekeepers by deciding which stories get clicks and shares and which stories don't get attention," he wrote.
Grabowski, who teaches media law and ethics, was also interviewed by San Diego radio station KOGO 600 on fake news.
He has a forthcoming article on "How to prevent fake news in scholastic media" in Communication: Journalism Education Today. It will be published in the Summer edition of the magazine for journalism educators.
"Many and varied examples of fake news ... have appeared in student media in recent years," Grabowski wrote. "And it might get worse. With most students now obtaining their news through social media, bogus news spreads faster and further than ever before. Too often students cannot tell when a story is fake."
In addition, Grabowski has given lectures on fake news at Adelphi University, St. John's University and Marymount Manhattan College. To invite him to speak on your campus, click here.
