Conservative talk-show host Laura Ingraham, who is in contention for White House press secretary, said what Trump did, when he reminded Carrier's parent company about its defense contracts with the federal government and got the company to accept the package of incentives the state of Indiana was already offering, was well within the bounds of executive action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Giving companies incentives to stay in states, as you see governors do all the time,\" Ingraham said, \"what's wrong with that? What's wrong with doing things that actually help regular, working-class Americans and that are popular?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the debate about Trump and democracy doesn't stop there. His critics say they can find no instance where Trump spoke in defense of democratic institutions or values. During the campaign he questioned the ability of a U.S.-born judge with Mexican parents to preside fairly over a lawsuit against him. Trump was suggesting that being an American has more to do with ethnic heritage than shared values.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the weekend, Trump cast doubt on U.S. intelligence and said he doesn't plan to take daily intelligence briefings. He has repeatedly sided with Russia, casting doubt that Russians hacked Democratic National Committee emails and the emails of Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta — and colluded to release them via WikiLeaks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CIA concluded Russia did so in an effort to help install Trump as the next U.S. president. Trump dismisses any evidence of that. President Obama has launched a \"full review\" of international meddling related to U.S. elections going back to the 2008 election, when China was found to have hacked both the Obama and McCain campaigns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it comes to freedom of speech, Trump is famous for his attacks on the media. Those are standard for political candidates, but Trump went even further, threatening to alter libel laws so journalists could be \"sued like they've never been sued before.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the campaign, Trump also promised to throw Hillary Clinton in jail. Even after he won, his critics say his magnanimous offer to \u003cem>refrain\u003c/em> from prosecuting her showed a lack of understanding of the U.S. democratic system, under which presidents don't get to decide by themselves whom to prosecute, let alone throw in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there's the ongoing debate about Trump's constant stream of statements that have no basis in fact. Coupled with the torrent of fake news stories (which Trump has repeated), these falsehoods, Trump's critics say, could undermine liberal democracy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether stating with zero proof that millions of noncitizens voted illegally, claiming falsely that climate change is a hoax, questioning baselessly (for years) if Obama was born in the United States, stating that he \"heard\" the unemployment rate might really be 42 percent or that everything people hear from the \"dishonest media\" is a lie, Trump's messages are designed to sow confusion, McMullin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all, if citizens can't believe anything they hear, then the easiest path is to just trust the leader. And, Trump has said, \"I alone\" can fix the country's problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To McMullin, this is a hallmark of authoritarians. He points to Trump's false claim that millions of illegal votes prevented him from winning a popular-vote majority, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It serves to undermine our democratic institutions,\" McMullin said. \"If those institutions are weakened, if we have less faith, for example, in elections, that strengthens the hand of the authoritarian.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The response of Trump's supporters to that critique hasn't been what you'd expect. Instead of insisting that Trump is telling the truth, Trump's surrogates, like his former campaign Manager Corey Lewandowski, said falsehoods are just part of Trump's leadership style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is the problem with the media,\" Lewandowski said at a recent Harvard University forum. \"You guys took everything Donald Trump said so literally. And the problem with that is the American people didn't. They understood that sometimes when you have a conversation with people, you're going to say something, and maybe you don't have all the facts to back that up, but that's how the American people live.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lewandowski seems to be arguing that since the average American might not know what he's talking about, why should Trump?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other Trump surrogates, like Scottie Nell Hughes, openly embrace Trump's role as the first president operating in a post-factual world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's no such thing, unfortunately, anymore of facts,\" Hughes said recently on \u003cem>The Diane Rehm Show.\u003c/em> \"And so Mr. Trump's tweets, amongst a certain crowd, a large — a large part of the population, are truth.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The argument that Trump's repeated prevarications pose a threat to democratic institutions, and to American democracy itself, is rejected by former George W.

The slow drip of those emails, including transcripts of Clinton's remarks to Goldman Sachs, hung over the campaign in its closing weeks and proved embarrassing at times. Podesta said he spoke to the FBI about the hacking, and intelligence experts blamed Russia for that as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We may be in, have crossed into a new threshold,\" said Lisa Monaco, the White House Homeland Security adviser, at a breakfast Friday morning hosted by the \u003cem>Christian Science Monitor,\u003c/em> of the 2016 hacking. \"It is incumbent upon us to take stock of that, to review, to conduct some after-action, to understand what this means, what has happened and to impart those lessons learned.

In early October, they \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/news/2016/10/07/joint-statement-department-homeland-security-and-office-director-national\" target=\"_blank\">released a strongly worded statement\u003c/a> saying they were \"confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from U.S. persons and institutions, including from U.S. political organizations.\" The statement went on to say \"these thefts and disclosures are intended to interfere with the U.S. election process.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after that, WikiLeaks began posting emails hacked from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta's Gmail account. The slow drip of those emails, including transcripts of Clinton's remarks to Goldman Sachs, hung over the campaign in its closing weeks and proved embarrassing at times. Podesta said he spoke to the FBI about the hacking, and intelligence experts blamed Russia for that as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We may be in, have crossed into a new threshold,\" said Lisa Monaco, the White House Homeland Security adviser, at a breakfast Friday morning hosted by the \u003cem>Christian Science Monitor,\u003c/em> of the 2016 hacking. \"It is incumbent upon us to take stock of that, to review, to conduct some after-action, to understand what this means, what has happened and to impart those lessons learned.

When she saw her students referencing questionable sources, she created and shared a document with them of how to think about sources, as well as a list of misleading, satirical and fake sites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"tips\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Mantzarlis and Zimdars agreed there are a few best practices people can use when reading articles online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pay attention to the domain and URL\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Established news organizations usually own their domains and they have a standard look that you are probably familiar with. Sites with endings like .com.co should make you raise your eyebrows and tip you off that you need to dig around more to see if they can be trusted. This is true even when the site looks professional and has semi-recognizable logos. For example, \u003ca href=\"http://abcnews.go.com/\" target=\"_blank\">abcnews.com\u003c/a> is a legitimate news source, but \u003ca href=\"http://abcnews.com.co/\" target=\"_blank\">abcnews.com.co\u003c/a> is not, despite its similar appearance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Read the \"About Us\" section\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most sites will have a lot of information about the news outlet, the company that runs it, members of leadership, and the mission and ethics statement behind an organization. The language used here is straightforward. If it's melodramatic and seems overblown, you should be skeptical. Also, you should be able to find out more information about the organization's leaders in places other than that site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Look at the quotes in a story\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or rather, look at the lack of quotes. Most publications have multiple sources in each story who are professionals and have expertise in the fields they talk about. If it's a serious or controversial issue, there are more likely to be quotes — and lots of them. Look for professors or other academics who can speak to the research they've done. And if they are talking about research, look up those studies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Look at who said them\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, see who said the quotes, and what they said. Are they a reputable source with a title that you can verify through a quick Google search? Say you're looking at a story and it says President Obama said he wanted to take everyone's guns away. And then there's a quote. Obama is an official who has almost everything he says recorded and archived. There are transcripts for pretty much any address or speech he has given. Google those quotes. See what the speech was about, who he was addressing and when it happened. Even if he did an exclusive interview with a publication, that same quote will be referenced in other stories, saying he said it while talking to the original publication.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Check the comments\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lot of these fake and misleading stories are shared on social media platforms. Headlines are meant to get the reader's attention, but they're also supposed to accurately reflect what the story is about. Lately, that hasn't been the case. Headlines often will be written in exaggerated language with the intention of being misleading and then attached to stories that are about a completely different topic or just not true. These stories usually generate a lot of comments on Facebook or Twitter. If a lot of these comments call out the article for being fake or misleading, it probably is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Reverse \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>image search\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A picture should be accurate in illustrating what the story is about. This often doesn't happen. If people who write these fake news stories don't even leave their homes or interview anyone for the stories, it's unlikely they take their own pictures. Do a little detective work and reverse search for the image on Google. You can do this by right-clicking on the image and choosing to search Google for it. If the image is appearing on a lot of stories about many different topics, there's a good chance it's not actually an image of what it says it was on the first story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These tips are just a start at determining what type of news an article is. Zimdars outlined these and others \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/10eA5-mCZLSS4MQY5QGb5ewC3VAL6pLkT53V_81ZyitM/edit\">in a guide for her students\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you do these steps, you're helping yourself and you're helping others by not increasing the circulation of these stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And you won't be the only one trying to stop the spread of this false content. The company leaders behind the platforms these stories are shared on are trying to figure out how to fix the issue from their side, but they are also trying to make sure not to limit anyone's right to freedom of speech. It's a tricky position to be in, but they've said they'll try. In the end, it really does depend on taking responsibility and being an engaged consumer of news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's one last thing. Satirical publications exist and serve a purpose, but are clearly labeled as exaggerated and humorous by the writers and owners. Some of the more well-known ones like \u003ca href=\"http://www.theonion.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Onion\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.clickhole.com/\" target=\"_blank\">ClickHole\u003c/a> use satire to talk about current events. If people don't understand that, they might share these articles after reading them in the literal sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If this happens or if you see your friends sharing blatantly fake news, be a friend and kindly tell them it's not real. Don't shy away from these conversations even if they might be uncomfortable. As said, everyone has to help fix the fake news problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Wynne Davis is a Digital News intern.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Copyright 2016 NPR.

Find whether they match or refute or prove the claim being made, and then present with all limitations the data and what the data says about the claim being made,\" Mantzarlis says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's the framework for professionals, but there are ways for everyone to do a bit of fact-checking themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.merrimack.edu/live/profiles/586-melissa-mish-zimdars\" target=\"_blank\">Melissa Zimdars\u003c/a> is an assistant professor of communication and media at Merrimack College in North Andover, Massachusetts. When she saw her students referencing questionable sources, she created and shared a document with them of how to think about sources, as well as a list of misleading, satirical and fake sites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"tips\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Mantzarlis and Zimdars agreed there are a few best practices people can use when reading articles online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pay attention to the domain and URL\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Established news organizations usually own their domains and they have a standard look that you are probably familiar with. Sites with endings like .com.co should make you raise your eyebrows and tip you off that you need to dig around more to see if they can be trusted. This is true even when the site looks professional and has semi-recognizable logos. For example, \u003ca href=\"http://abcnews.go.com/\" target=\"_blank\">abcnews.com\u003c/a> is a legitimate news source, but \u003ca href=\"http://abcnews.com.co/\" target=\"_blank\">abcnews.com.co\u003c/a> is not, despite its similar appearance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Read the \"About Us\" section\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most sites will have a lot of information about the news outlet, the company that runs it, members of leadership, and the mission and ethics statement behind an organization. The language used here is straightforward. If it's melodramatic and seems overblown, you should be skeptical. Also, you should be able to find out more information about the organization's leaders in places other than that site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Look at the quotes in a story\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or rather, look at the lack of quotes. Most publications have multiple sources in each story who are professionals and have expertise in the fields they talk about. If it's a serious or controversial issue, there are more likely to be quotes — and lots of them. Look for professors or other academics who can speak to the research they've done. And if they are talking about research, look up those studies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Look at who said them\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, see who said the quotes, and what they said. Are they a reputable source with a title that you can verify through a quick Google search? Say you're looking at a story and it says President Obama said he wanted to take everyone's guns away. And then there's a quote. Obama is an official who has almost everything he says recorded and archived. There are transcripts for pretty much any address or speech he has given. Google those quotes. See what the speech was about, who he was addressing and when it happened. Even if he did an exclusive interview with a publication, that same quote will be referenced in other stories, saying he said it while talking to the original publication.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Check the comments\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lot of these fake and misleading stories are shared on social media platforms. Headlines are meant to get the reader's attention, but they're also supposed to accurately reflect what the story is about. Lately, that hasn't been the case. Headlines often will be written in exaggerated language with the intention of being misleading and then attached to stories that are about a completely different topic or just not true. These stories usually generate a lot of comments on Facebook or Twitter. If a lot of these comments call out the article for being fake or misleading, it probably is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Reverse \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>image search\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A picture should be accurate in illustrating what the story is about. This often doesn't happen. If people who write these fake news stories don't even leave their homes or interview anyone for the stories, it's unlikely they take their own pictures. Do a little detective work and reverse search for the image on Google. You can do this by right-clicking on the image and choosing to search Google for it. If the image is appearing on a lot of stories about many different topics, there's a good chance it's not actually an image of what it says it was on the first story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These tips are just a start at determining what type of news an article is. Zimdars outlined these and others \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/10eA5-mCZLSS4MQY5QGb5ewC3VAL6pLkT53V_81ZyitM/edit\">in a guide for her students\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you do these steps, you're helping yourself and you're helping others by not increasing the circulation of these stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And you won't be the only one trying to stop the spread of this false content. The company leaders behind the platforms these stories are shared on are trying to figure out how to fix the issue from their side, but they are also trying to make sure not to limit anyone's right to freedom of speech. It's a tricky position to be in, but they've said they'll try. In the end, it really does depend on taking responsibility and being an engaged consumer of news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's one last thing. Satirical publications exist and serve a purpose, but are clearly labeled as exaggerated and humorous by the writers and owners. Some of the more well-known ones like \u003ca href=\"http://www.theonion.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Onion\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.clickhole.com/\" target=\"_blank\">ClickHole\u003c/a> use satire to talk about current events. If people don't understand that, they might share these articles after reading them in the literal sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If this happens or if you see your friends sharing blatantly fake news, be a friend and kindly tell them it's not real. Don't shy away from these conversations even if they might be uncomfortable. As said, everyone has to help fix the fake news problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
