Analyze

Explanation:

Bloom's Taxonomy is a method of classifying learning from complex to specific. Mostly represented as a pyramid from bottom to top is remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate and create.

For this example of a "fake news" story the tier of "Analyze" is applicable since it will require the use of judgement, and comparing and contrasting as well as discernment skills.
