Notice what emotions an image or video trigger

When an image or video makes you angry, frightened, sad or extremely enthusiastic, this is often a signal to pause. Take a moment to reflect and ask yourself questions such as:

  • Why does this image affect me so strongly? Does it evoke strong emotions or doubts?
  • What is the creator trying to do: inform, persuade or manipulate?
  • Why am I seeing this image? Does it play into my existing beliefs or fears?
