Greetings from Cherkasy, Ukraine!
This school year was difficult for all of us but we do believe that we will overcome all the
obstacles and Covid 19 will disappear forever. This is only the second day we are back to school
from distant learning but we decided not to miss the chance of participation in the contest. The
song “Fake news” was written by the members of our gymnasia euro club “New Generation” to
draw attention to the problem of disinformation, false and biased information and foster media
literacy in our community. We would like all people to learn how to check facts and spot fakes
around us.
Fake news!
Fake things!
Escape a ruse! Let’s find the truth!
Elaborate truth!
Information flies to us like a bird,
It sometimes can be absurd
Very often it’s a ruse.
Is the news always the truth?
It isn’t easy to spot fake news
It’s better to lie than tell the truth
Fake news, fake things around us
Like a broken glass.
Computers, the Internet and social media
Enable every individual
to get fact-based information,
True facts and true communication.
You know falsehood is on the Internet,
Don’t wear a soundproof hat.
To find the truth is a must,
Fake things destroy trust.
We are happy to be together on board Schoolovision 2021!
