Have you been told a rumor? Do what Socrates would do: the three filter test. In ancient Greece, Socrates, recognized for his immense wisdom, received a person who, with great enthusiasm, said to him: "Socrates! You know what I just heard about your friend?" The philosopher, calmly, replied: "Just a moment. Before you tell me, let's go through what you mean by three filters." First filter: the truth.
