Do you know what allegedly means?

[Anonymous]

These days it seems like a lot of people will read or see a news story that says “allegedly” in the title but will take it as it has actually been proven to be true.

If a news article or peeson says “allegedly” it means what they are saying hasn’t been proven to be true.

I’m sick of people repeating unproven claims as if they are facts or proven to be true.

Most people do but if it's something they want to be true, you can usually just throw out logic and reason and they just act like it's true.
