How the internet lied to you in 2015

It was another busy year for journalists debunking fake or misleading images on social media.

There were deliberate fakes created to deceive the public and then there were misleading images shared, often during breaking news situations, that were entirely unrelated to the story.

Were you caught out by any of these?
