Fake news doesn’t usually announce itself. It doesn’t wear a label, wave a red flag, or admit it’s lying. Instead, it flatters your beliefs, pushes emotional buttons, and spreads faster than facts ever could.
So what if the best way to learn how fake news works… was to create it yourself?
That’s the idea behind Bad News, an online game at GetBadNews.com — and it’s not what you think.
In Bad News, you don’t fact-check headlines or hunt for the truth. You do the opposite.
You become a misinformation mastermind.
Your goal is to gain followers, build influence, and manipulate public opinion using the same tactics real fake news peddlers rely on every day: outrage, polarization, impersonation, conspiracy thinking, and distrust of experts. Each decision nudges you closer to viral success — or public backlash.
It’s uncomfortable.
It’s clever.
And it’s surprisingly fun.
