Putting it together: explain each side, check the claim, sentence 6

To verify a claim, look on official websites and big news sites; if nothing official has it, it is probably not true, and you can say so without laughing at anyone.

Who acts: nothing, claim, you · What happens: verify, look, have, not be, say, laugh · To what, where: claim, anyone · Speech: someone speaks here
