In Ted Talks, Jon talks about a woman's life that changes in the matter of hours just because of a mistaken tweet. The tweet was meant to be a kindhearted joke but was misinterpreted and ended up making her look as if she was a racist. In the matter of hours this woman had lost her job and her friends just because the joke she made on Twitter was misinterpreted. Finally in Activism Through Social Media On Newsela by Ernie Suggs, he talks about how african americans are perceived completely different on social media than would a caucasian. In this article Ernie says that just because someone is an African American they are immediately put into a category. No matter how they live, what they do for work, or how much money they make, they are all segregated into one category. And to be quite frank i believe this statement wholeheartedly. The message of who a person is, is already corrupted by society's labels and stereotypes just from having a certain skin tone. As you can see through these examples information is always being corrupted in our everyday lifes, we just havent realized
