"The term fake news means 'news articles that are intentionally and verifiably false' [1] designed to manipulate people’s perceptions of real facts, events, and statements. It’s about information presented as news that is known by its promoter to be false based on facts that are demonstrably incorrect, or statements or events that verifiably did not happen.   Fake news 'is fabricated information that mimics news media content in form but…lack(s) the news media’s editorial norms and processes for ensuring the accuracy and credibility of information' [2]. It overlaps with misinformation (false or misleading information) and disinformation (false information purposely spread to mislead people)" (Center for Information Technology and Society).
