News Feeds

Instagram VS Facebook



Last time I wrote a blog post, I compared Snapchat and Twitter, but this time I am going to compare Instagram and Facebook and their delivery of news to the public. First off, Instagram is a social media platform that is run by peoples personal everyday happenings, and their fake lives which influence others to think they are perfect. Instagram is a place that people get false ideas about people, rather than receiving fake news. Contrastly, Facebook is full of robots and false advertisements that entice people on social media to think differently of products and brands. "Instagram previously blocked hashtags that contained false information," this goes to show that although there is still fake news, they are taking precautions to keep it from happening. All in all, I do not believe that either social media platform is perfect at not delivering fake news, but I believe that it is easier to get real facts from Instagram because it is peoples personal social media accounts with mostly pictures and captions rather than just written posts.
