In a world of forever expanding technology and media there are many ideas and media being processed as it comes down to what we can filter. People are beings of intelligence in most respects as they soak up knowledge like a sponge. This means though that there is a certain way to read this information. To be literate means to understand the information given and therefore be able to recite said information, but it is ultimately up to them to do fact checking. Without this process wrong information gets propagated and passed onto others.
There are many out there that would bank on this and continue the idea of many being given misinformation for the purpose of their own gains. (IE: Hacking, fishing, spam.) Culturally one could say that the internet itself is now a culture, and with this I fully agree as it allows the removal of borders and geography to dictate who interacts.
