Moekoの日本語ベラベラtimeEpi30: もっと落語の話【Japanese Podcast: listening practice】

Every time you're online, you are bombarded by pictures, articles, links and videos trying to tell their story. Unfortunately, not all of these stories are true. Sometimes they want you to click on another story or advertisement at their own site, other times they want to upset people for political reasons. These days it's so easy to share information. These stories circulate quickly, and the result is … fake news.

There is a range of fake news: from crazy stories which people easily recognise to more subtle types of misinformation. Experts in media studies and online psychology have been examining the fake news phenomenon. Read these tips, and don't get fooled!

1. Check the source
Look at the website where the story comes from. Does it look real? Is the text well written? Are there a variety of other stories or is it just one story? Fake news websites often use addresses that sound like real newspapers, but don't have many real stories about other topics. If you aren't sure, click on the 'About' page and look for a clear description of the organisation.

2. Watch out for fake photos
Many fake news stories use images that are Photoshopped or taken from an unrelated site. Sometimes, if you just look closely at an image, you can see if it has been changed. Or use a tool like Google Reverse Image search. It will show you if the same image has been used in other contexts.

3. Check the story is in other places
Look to see if the story you are reading is on other news sites that you know and trust. If you do find it on many other sites, then it probably isn't fake (although there are some exceptions), as many big news organisations try to check their sources before they publish a story. 

4. Look for other signs
There are other techniques that fake news uses. These include using ALL CAPS and lots of ads that pop up when you click on a link. Also, think about how the story makes you feel. If the news story makes you angry, it's probably designed to make you angry.

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

北海道旅行の続きです。
今日は3日目の話です。

3日目の朝も、スターバックスに行きました。
スターバックスコーヒー　釧路鶴見橋店
https://maps.app.goo.gl/HYi37SC3ysNf7VFo8?g_st=ic

新釧路川という大きな川を目の前に眺めることができる、2階建のきれいなスターバックスでした。

朝はここでゆっくり時間を過ごしました。


それから、日本最東端、さいとうたん、1番東の納沙布岬、のさっぷみさき、を目指しました。

釧路からは、150kmぐらいです。
この距離は日本だと短い距離ではないですが、北海道で長距離運転が増えたのでだいぶ慣れてきました。


昼ごはんは、厚岸、あっけし、というところで牡蠣フライを食べました。この地域は牡蠣が有名みたいです。道の駅で食べました。

この店では、牡蠣の食べ比べもできるおもしろい場所でした。

道の駅　厚岸グルメパーク

そのあとに、納沙布岬、のさっぷみさき、にたどり着きました。

天気はあまり良くなかったんですが、長い時間をかけて、ようやく着いたので、日本の最東端に着いた！という達成感がありました。

日本で数少ない、国境、こっきょう、を感じる場所でした。


30分ほど、景色や資料館を見たあと、その日の夜に泊まるゲストハウスまで移動しました。

この続きはまたPodcastでお話しますね！

今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
