1/ Even in today's AI age, basic #NewsLiteracy skills are sometimes enough to get the facts of a story:

1 - Critical observation: What am I looking at?
2 - Sourcing: Who posted this? Do they have an agenda?
3 - Verification: Has this video or photo been verified as legit by other credible sources?
