# 7. Help!

Now you have learned what fake news and disinformation are, why it is spread, why this is a problem and how you can arm yourself against it.

Fortunately, you do not have to find out everything yourself if you want to find out whether a post is reliable. There are many fact-checking websites that check whether current reports are true, such as Nieuwscheckers. At Retraction Watch, you can check for problems or doubts with scientific articles.

Any doubts? See if a fact-checker has researched the subject or ask the library for advice.
