Forbes's article, "Where Exposure to Fake News is the Highest" points out that there are many news sources out there but some of them are just full of fake news. Niall McCarthy said, "fake news is generally higher among people with high levels of interest in news." Those who believe they are staying more informed than someone who follows the news less might actually be receiving more false information. Turkey leads the world with the highest fake news with 49% fake news, but the United Sates is not too far behind at 31% fake news. McCarthy included a bar graph of various countries and the amount of fake news there.
