I prefer getting stories from both outlets and over the past six months I have watched CNN provide a secure news experience while Fox News failed to adopt this improvement for their readers.

An SSL certificate allows websites to offer a secure HTTPS connection by providing encrypted authentication between a user’s browser and the associated web server. HTTPS helps keep visitors safe from eavesdropping and tampering with their browsing experience when connected to a particular website.</p> <p>“With the rise of fake news, privacy issues and politically motivated disinformation, you must secure your news source,” Gargiulo inferred. “It’s an important feature that helps legitimate websites stand out from illegitimate sites while providing visitors with the assurance that the proper safeguards are in place to protect their privacy.”</p> <p>According to Gargiulo, Fox News isn’t the only offender. “Plenty of other major outlets are not redirecting all HTTP traffic to their respective HTTPS URL,” he explained. “Chief offenders include <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=E4xESNOVlF-__BQ3Kx6-IjPeSacIN3LB8rwtAON9L2haZgOJWsc7nU3hq-BynHha" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="BBC.com">BBC.com</a>, <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=G4CyDpxh7oljNuXggb504fHF-sQwdU6NfJdskdO87bO3xh4MqIiia181SfJt6lgzfTBW-Y4qsLgGw0eXr0O3uQ==" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="NFL.com">NFL.com</a> and nearly all of <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=dmIC1qbnfWo4JBi6dhqr3KX5AvIJaRVKrzou10xA0HHDoCwJ4dj1LNhmTpkUaCEqcD-1tEW5R8nZHHugQx6oBoB1KqLkuRxLSF54nZw9EO8=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Fox’s local news affiliates">Fox’s local news affiliates</a>.
