Suppose you’re a school newspaper reporter planning to write a story about kids who leave their trash and litter behind in the school cafeteria. Which image would provide false context for the story, making it a form of fake news?

an image of your school custodian and cafeteria staff looking overwhelmed
a cartoon depicting ignorant-looking kids throwing food over their shoulders
an image of another school’s cafeteria covered in trash and rotting food
a close-up image of a rotten banana peel on one of the school’s cafeteria tables

Answer: an image of another school’s cafeteria covered in trash and rotting food

Step-by-step explanation:

An image that creates an inaccurate connection between itself and the story provides false context. One of the images suggests that something that is actually happening elsewhere is happening at your school.
