Fake News IN SOCIAL MEDIA THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT21eg104d51
Fake news refers to false information presented as legitimate news that is often spread intentionally to deceive or push an agenda. Common sources of fake news include social media, unreliable websites, propaganda, and foreign actors looking to influence public opinion. If believed, fake news can mislead people and undermine trust in real news sources while in some cases inciting violence. It is important for people to verify information from multiple sources, think critically about headlines and sources of news, and promote media literacy to combat the spread of fake news.
This document discusses several key topics related to social networks and online communities:
1. It defines different types of online communities including personal communities, cybercommunities, and how relationships and connections can form within these spaces.
2. It also discusses important aspects that define a community such as membership, influence, needs fulfillment, and emotional connection.
3. The document then examines the concept of a personal community and identifies three defining properties - numbers, constancy, and involvement. It provides examples to illustrate these different properties.
EMPOWERING YOUTH TO COMBAT HATE SPEECH, MISINFORMATION, AND DISINFORMATION IN THE ERA OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN SOUTH SUDAN is a presentation by Emmanuel Bida Thomas at students' Inter-college conference organised by the Association for Media Development in South Sudan (AMDISS) with support from the Norwegian People's Aid (NPA) on 20th July 2023
This document discusses fake news, including what it is, the different types, how it spreads, why people believe it, and the dangers it poses. Fake news refers to false or misleading information presented as real news that is often spread deliberately to influence people. It comes in various forms like misinformation, disinformation, clickbait and propaganda. Fake news spreads widely on social media and is sometimes used by paid internet users called "trolls." While people may believe fake news due to repeated exposure or it aligning with their own views, it undermines trust in real news and can influence important issues or even people's health if about medical topics. Identifying fake news requires investigating sources and claims made in articles.
MEDIA AND INFORMATION LITERACY FOR GRADE 12 LEARNERSJasminePalabrica
Media and information play a vital role in communication by connecting people worldwide and acting as tools to share information, ideas, messages, and content in widespread and accessible ways. While they reduce barriers to communication, media can also spread misinformation and be abused to deceive or confuse people. Media literacy involves analyzing and producing various media, information literacy is evaluating needed information and communicating it effectively, and technology literacy is using technology to find, assess, use, and create information.
Misinformation, Disinformation, Malinformation, fake news and librariesDr Trivedi
The document discusses misinformation, fake news, and the role of libraries in combating them.

Finally, it discusses the different roles media can play in a democracy, such as common carrier, watchdog, signaler and public representative.

Facebook lancia l'allarme: tentativi di propaganda e manipolazione dell'informazione, apparentemente orchestrati da governi o soggetti organizzati, sfruttando le 'fake news' ma anche profili falsi che puntano a influenzare l'opinione pubblica.
Social media has changed communication but also raises ethical issues around privacy, misinformation, and mental health. Key debates focus on balancing free speech against harmful content. Filter bubbles and confirmation bias can limit exposure to diverse views through algorithms that amplify aligned content. Disinformation spreads for political and financial gain using bots, fake accounts and doctored content, undermining trust and democracy. Hate speech and cyberbullying on platforms can seriously impact mental health.
The document discusses media bias from the perspectives of two articles - one by Xiaoyi Luo from outside the media and one by Paul Farhi from within the media. Both authors aimed to inform readers about media bias and its effects on voters. The document will compare and analyze the two articles rhetorically to better understand how media bias affects elections from different points of view based on research.

This is a webinar organised by the Nigerian Library Association, Delta State Chapter, in collaboration with Digital Citizens.
The aim of the webinar is to equip library and information professionals with necessary technologies and strategies needed to play key roles in the dissemination of correct information, and in the information literacy of citizens, in this era of fake news and misinformation.
The document discusses concerns about media bias and its influence on public opinion. It argues that many political figures have claimed major media outlets have a liberal bias, which could manipulate the American public and influence them to support Democratic policies and candidates. While media organizations have historically leaned liberal, the document asserts they should report news objectively without an ideological slant, as bias can seep into coverage in ways that sway the public. Overall, the text examines debates around alleged media bias and its potential effects on shaping political views.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Information Disorder
6. Understanding Information Disorder
What is Information Disorder?
Information Disorder is the spread or
dissemination of false, misleading, or
low-quality information that can
negatively impact individuals, society,
or the overall information ecosystem.
7. Misinformation
This is when false information is shared without the intent to deceive. It
can be caused by mistakes, misunderstandings, or a lack of knowledge.
Disinformation
False information is deliberately spread in order to deceive or mislead. It
is often used to manipulate public opinion or behavior.
Malinformation
Genuine information is shared with the intent to harm someone or
institution. This can include sharing private information, or sharing
information that is intended to damage someone's reputation.
Types of Information Disorder
11. In South Sudan, malinformation has been targeted at
institutions or prominent figures e.g. musicians.
Leaked sexually explicit images or video clips, which I
can’t attached here, are usually shared to damage the
reputation of the individuals involved. (Revenge
pornography)
Example: Information Disorder (type)
Malinformation
12. Example: Information Disorder/pollution
False or fabricated information
presented as factual news, often
intended to deceive or mislead
readers. This can include
intentionally misleading headlines,
manipulated images, or completely
invented stories.
The audio clip
does not support
the caption
13. A hoax is a trick or deception that
is intended to deceive or mislead
someone. Hoaxes can be spread
through a variety of means,
including email, social media, and
word-of-mouth- cover a wide range
of topics, including celebrities,
politics, and current events.
Example: Information Disorder/pollution
14. Sensational or misleading headlines
designed to attract clicks and
generate website traffic, often
leading to low-quality or irrelevant
content.
Clickbait aims to grab attention
rather than providing accurate or
valuable information.
Appeal to emotional curiosity
Example: Information Disorder/pollution
15. Example: Information
Disorder/pollution
Media outlets or journalists presenting information with a
subjective or skewed perspective, omitting crucial facts or
manipulating information to promote a particular agenda or
viewpoint. (Tabloids, eg. Phaw Radio FM, Sixty 4 Tribes
Press, and others)
These are some common forms of information pollution that
