Write a short fake news article about the current events surrounding COVID-19 and the ECQ.

After writing your article, answer the following reflective questions in the same document:
3. What are the possible impediments of free will that influence these writers to propagate
misleading information?
4. After having tapped into the mindset of fake news writers, enumerate markers/pointers that
distinguishes fake news from genuine news articles.
Note: You can ask your friends to comment on your fake news article (without telling them it
was yours) and see if they can spot the same markers as real fake news.
RETIRED PHILIPPINE ARMY DEAD ON THE SPOT MANILA, PHILIPPINES - A retired
Philippine Army was shot at Quezon City. The incidents happen when a retired Philippine Army
threatens the police and doesn't obey the order to go home so there will be no arguments to
happen but instead, to go home the retired Philippine Army still argues to the policemen.
According to the family of the retired army, he has a mental disorder. Further, the policemen
shoot him because he saw the retired army getting a gun inside his bag and the way how he talks
and behaves while he was arguing to the police. Because of the prolonged Enhanced Community
Quarantine, there is an order about a gun ban, that's why the policemen try to defend himself
over the retired Philippine army when he tried to put out his gun through his bag. According to
the investigation the retired Philippine army is carrying a caliber 38 pistol.
1.) Was it morally hard writing a fake news article? Why or why not?
Yes. It is morally hard to write fake news because it can cause threat or harm to a
person’s life. In today’s situation people are relying on news that’s why it is necessary to know
what is real and fake. Writing false information or even disseminating this to the public is
morally wrong. It will only depend on our conscience if we care to others or even on ourselves it
goes boil down we are just fooling ourselves.
2.) Do you think fake news writers share the same moral sentiments as you?
It depends because some writers who write fake news are being paid and some are doing
for fun or maybe for nothing. Those writers who are being paid I think no because they only care
about the money itself, and they do not even care for the people who might affect the news, they
want chaos and misinformation into the situation, and those writers who wrote fake news for fun
maybe they still also have the same moral sentiments as me. In this kind of circumstance, they
will realize that what they did is wrong and writing fake news can affect a lot of people and can
put them into a serious situation or danger.
