Abstract:
Due to the large increase in the proliferation of "fake news" in recent years, it has become a widely discussed menace in the online world. In conjunction with this popularity, research of ways to limit the spread has also increased. This paper aims to look at the current research of this area in order to see what automatic fake news detection methods exist and are being developed, which can help online users in protecting themselves against fake news. A systematic literature review is conducted in order to answer this question, with different detection methods discussed in the literature bein

Fake news har fått ett starkt fäste i sociala medier och är ett växande problem – för individen såväl som för samhället. Grundläggande teorier om beslutsfattande, samarbete, kommunikation och marknader bygger alla på en bärande idé om att information är sann, precis och samvetsgrann. Det finns starka både ideologiska och ekonomiska motiv bakom spridningen av felaktiga fakta, falska berättelser, lögner och konspirationsteorier. Det råder en uttalad oro över effekten på politiska val och den demokratiska utvecklingen, men också farhågor om andra potentiella negativa konsekvenser, från ökande cyn

Abstract. Checking authenticity of fake news before sharing online can reduce spread of misinformation. But fact-checking requires cognitive and psychological effort, which people are often not willing to give. Some fact-checking methods might even be counterproductive, entrenching people into their deeply held beliefs. Numerous online fact-checking services have emerged recently which verify false claims to address the issue. While these services are quite efficient technologically, they seriously overlook human behavioral factors associated with fake news. Persuasive systems have been pro

Gli articoli esaminati sono stati raccolti durante la fase più acuta della pandemia legata al coronavirus (23 febbraio-15 luglio).

Abstract:
Al giorno d'oggi, conoscere il concetto di Fake News e come riconoscerli e affrontarli sta diventando un argomento centrale in molte discipline come giornalismo, scienze della comunicazione, scienze politiche, diritto, medicina, scienze comportamentali, psicologia cognitiva, sociologia, filosofia ( in particolare la fenomenologia), ma anche le scienze computazionali e informatiche. Questo gruppo di ricercatori sta cercando di rispondere alle stesse domande e ottenere una visione più chiara di: quali notizie false sono, come possono essere riconosciute e che tipo di conseguenze possono avere su

Abstract:
In an age of ever-expanding digital communication platforms and the presence of news online becoming paramount, the amount of information being shared and the truth of that information is becoming more and more difficult to track. The power of these social platforms is one that all should recognize and reflect upon in terms of their use of them, and reliance on them for the information they need. This thesis seeks to explore this power and the ways in which to remedy the falsities spread on the platforms faster than ever before, through photographic journalism.

Abstract:
The popular cable show South Park has steadily entertained audiences since its debut in 1997. Much of the showâ s humor and entertainment value comes from its satirical treatment of public figures, institutions, and timely trends. One of the institutions often lampooned on the show is that of television news broadcasting. This thesis project seeks to shed light on entertainment media portrayals of television news journalists and television news journalism as a whole by examining the issues covered, how those issues are framed, and how the journalist is used as a figure on the border of ent

Abstract:
During the past few years online misinformation, generally referred to as fake news, has been identified as an increasingly dangerous threat. As the spread of misinformation online has increased, fake news detection has become an active line of research. One approach is to use knowledge graphs for the purpose of automated fake news detection. While large scale knowledge graphs are openly available these are rarely up to date, often missing the relevant information needed for the task of fake news detection. Creating new knowledge graphs from online sources is one way to obtain the missing info

TOPICAL ANALYSIS OF FAKE NEWS 4 Abstract Since the 2016 US presidential campaign of Donald Trump, the term "fake news" has permeated mainstream discourse. The proliferation of disinformation and false narratives on social media platforms has caused concern in security circles in both the United States and European Union. Combining latent Dirichlet allocation, a machine learning method for text mining, with themes on topical analysis, ideology and social identity drawn from Critical Discourse theory, this thesis examines the elaborate fake news environments of two well-known English language we

Aging represents the most significant prerequisite to be influenced by disinformation or fraudulent media messages on the internet. The elderly are a group that consumes these messages and also spreads them most often. With the gradual aging of the population and enlargement of the elderly group, the society-wide problem further escalates. The topic of the diploma thesis is focused on the issues of fake news and the spread of disinformation online within the elderly group aged 65 and more years. The thesis aims to describe in detail the aspects on which the elderly evaluate the credibility of
