Good morning and welcome to Kid News. I'm Tori. It's Thursday, September 17th, 2020.

And we begin with a celebrity stand on social media getting a cool reception.

Some high profile names like Leonardo DiCaprio,

Kim Kardashian West, Katie Perry, and Mark Ruffalo decided to freeze their

Instagram accounts yesterday to protest the misinformation and negative speech on both

some calling it a stunt, ineffective, and not much of a sacrifice.

However, the Coalition of Civil Rights Organizations behind the effort said yesterday's action

was just the first step in a new round of

messaging and today you can expect to see stars with millions of followers

posting educational messages aimed at young people,

explaining how social media companies spread disinformation

and allow extreme groups to form online.

A lot of people who are missing the experience of plane travel have a new

option. Taking off in popularity right now in Thailand are so-called plane cafes, which offer families the chance to pretend

their dining in the sky. Inside a retired commercial jet in one coastal city,

coffee drinkers settle into comfy first-class style seats and pose for photos by the overhead

compartments. And with boarding passes in hand, some passengers can even opt for a tour of the cockpit.

And at another cafe at the headquarters of National Carrier Thai Airways,

customers sit in real airplane seats and are served typical airplane food on plastic trays.

It doesn't replace actual plane travel, but some customers say it's the next best thing. The music star behind the smash hit Old Town Road is going down a new path,

becoming a book author.
