Sometimes there are articles in the news on Facebook and Twitter which do not fit the day.
Sometimes there are articles in the news on Facebook and Twitter which do not fit the day. It is OK if the article is about a local topic, but when it is about military one, it may cause some panic. You can enter a social network and see that everyone shares news that the borders are being bombarded, military equipment is brought and so on.
Sharing such news may cause chaos: people becoming frustrated, they share and take it close to their heart. But there is a delicate point: sometimes this news is expired. So, before sharing something check when it was posted, and if you see it is an old one put it aside.
