Can kindergarteners spot fake news? One country thinks so

  • Finland teaches media literacy from age six โ€” kids write stories WITH AI to learn what AI can and can't do.
  • Family challenge: I say three statements about today โ€” one is made up. Family interrogates each one.
  • Which questions expose a lie fastest?
Ask 'how do you know?' โ€” the question that melts fake news
Finland's trick isn't suspicion of everything โ€” it's one habit: ask where the information came from.

Kindergarteners ask it. Adults often forget. That's the whole fight against fake news: one small question, asked out loud, every time.
Today's 1%: Tonight, everyone asks 'how do you know?' about one thing they were told today.

How were the 5 minutes?
