ABCnews.com.co website with two headlines: "New McDonalds in Scottsdale Run entirely by robots" and "Bill Murray Saves Life of Phoenix Man by Performing Heimlich Maneuver"

Is this a real news website?

This is the homepage of a website with an “ABC News” logo. The URL (website address) is abcnews.com.co.

For this example, use “lateral reading” to investigate this news source by searching for information in new tabs. (Hint: Be sure to use quotation marks around "abcnews.com.co" in your search to avoid going to the website itself. The key is to open news tabs to look for information about the website from other sources.)

Reminder: You may need to review the Check Center tutorials for “lateral reading” before moving on.
