| Sumario: | [EN] It seems increasingly difficult to discern between what is true and what is false in the face of so much noise on social networks. Disinformation has become a real problem in the 21st century (Guallar et al., 2020). The term fake news usually refers to false news or hoaxes that are spread through social networks and media, but it could also be defined as a type of messages that, without having to be completely false or untruthful, are versions or interested stories that lack rigor, credibility and veracity in their contents; their purpose is to be disinformation affecting our perception of reality (Alonso, 2019; Losada, 2020). More than a specific type of content, disinformation is a process where fake news is mixed with truthful information and where different channels cooperate to enhance the credibility of such malicious accounts (Elías, 2021). |
