Scrolling through every social media outlet a fake news link always pops up. If its from the election to celebrities to even whats going on in the world; people are always creating websites sharing made up information. It was interesting because my roommates and I were eating lunch in our apartment and we were all looking at our phones. One thing that has been across all social media outlets is whether or not Kylie Jenner is pregnant with Travis Scott's baby . We went to Google and multiple websites showed up. Clicking the link on some of them showed pictures that she had posted on her Instagram and pictures of TMZ that were clearly photoshopped. Her stomach was blown out and stretched completely. Even though the original picture is very easy to find. Another story that was spread widely was that Beyonce faked her pregnancy.

In April of 2017, the Pepsi Ad including Kendall Jenner blew up across social media and the news. Many memes and backlash occurred after Pepsi released the controversial ad. In the ad, a protest was occurring and Kendall Jenner at the end grabs a Pepsi and hands it to the officers and the protest is over and celebrated. I believe that Kendall Jenner was in the wrong but people didn't focus on the advertisement as a whole. During the protests, even before Kendall Jenner joined in, people were running and jumping and smiling while protesting for Black Lives Matter. I thought that controversy should also be focused on them because never have I seen a protest occur that people were running with signs with a huge smile on their face. I know that Kendall Jenner was criticized the most because she was the big name in the advertisement but I believe the other actors be held accountable too. Photo by Jazzybell  Via Wikimedia Commons
