Fake News: disinformation as an electoral strategy k3oy

Trump won the election carrying controversy for the fake news he created

The term “fake news” became known in the United States presidential elections in 2016, due to its use by the candidate. Donald Trump. The Republican candidate was elected president based on these lies he called "alternative facts." His election campaign involved hacking from Russia, misuse of Facebook data and defamation against opposition candidate Hillary Clinton. So convinced of your victory, Trump declared that if he lost it would be because of poll fraud. Despite numerous evidence of electoral irregularities, Trump remains president of the most powerful country in the world without any court summons.

Elected president of Brazil, Bolsonaro accumulates several speeches that generate disinformation

History repeated itself in America. The phenomenon of fake news impacted Brazil in its 2018 presidential election. The next president of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, was the biggest spreader of fake news in the elections, along with his ers. As a PSL candidate, your dubious statements always became the agenda on websites of fact checking, being classified largely as “false”, “exaggerated”, “contradictory” and “unsustainable”. It is possible to check this in a survey by Agência Lupa with 110 sentences said by Bolsonaro during the campaign, such as saying that the Marco Civil da Internet was an attempt at censorship by the PT.

Accused of box 2, Bolsonaro exempted himself from the crime

Like Trump, Bolsonaro also had undeclared from companies in the campaign. Folha de São Paulo denounced that companies invested R$ 12 million in broadcasting messages against PT on WhatsApp. Bolsonaro attacked Folha, but did not deny the companies' . At the first press conference as president-elect, Bolsonaro barred the presence of Folha and other newspapers.

Known for defending the totalitarian and bloodthirsty regime of the 64 Military Dictatorship, Bolsonaro is the most contradictory figure to assume the presidency of Brazil in a democratic way.

Again repeating Donald Trump's actions, Bolsonaro even said that if he lost the elections it would be due to electoral fraud. The PSL candidate previously accused the Workers' Party: “the PT discovered the way to power: electronic voting”, defending the printed vote. (https://andeglobal.org) Bolsonaro was elected president of Brazil for the next 4 years following the election by electronic vote and did not question fraud in his victory.

Fact checking agencies and the hard fight against fake news 4e3m5t

Agency are created to check the veracity of news

Elections are over, but fake news is not. This is because fake news has always existed, the attempt at disinformation is present in several vehicles and managed by companies or ordinary people, but always defending their interests. For this, several fact checking agencies were created in Brazil, such as the Land, Trick e The Facts.

These agencies are tasked with investigate the veracity of news, statements and rumors. It is the attempt to deny the fake news, however much the Free Brazil Movement (MBL) when asked by the Truco agency about the sources used to make Doubtful claims about the semi-open regime.

The MBL group posted on its social networks a video of its member Francine Galbier recommending that the investigators from the Truco agency “turn around” to find the sources, “because we do not owe any satisfaction to this little project of yours, which, by the way, does not recognize as legitimate”.

It is sad that an agency that is only committed to the veracity of information is labeled a “censorship agency” when in fact it has no power to do so.

Federal Public Ministry also wants to fight fake news 651g1d

After the 2018 elections, the fear of fake news became even bigger. Recognizing the demand, the Federal Public Ministry opened its SAC (Citizen Service Room) to also collect fake news reports. By taking the fight against fake news seriously, the MPF created the Cybercrime Group. MPF agents are ready to receive your complaint, learn how to do it:

Step 1: Go to Citizen Service Room website and click on “Make your statement”.

Step 2: Fill in the form with your personal or legal person data.

Step 3: In the “Demonstration Data” section, select “Representation” under “Demonstration Type”.

Step 4: Carefully read the disclaimer of making a report and what is required. Then click on “Accept” if you want to proceed.

Step 5: Fill in the mandatory data and, if possible, describe your complaint as much as possible. Share links, screenshots and other data that can contribute to the investigation.

Step 6: Select whether to share your current location and/or keep personal data private. Then, prove that you are not a robot using the CAPTCHA test. Finish by clicking on “”.

Think carefully about what you want to share 6a6v3b

Help democracy and fight disinformation, don't manage. Else soon you might be like Fernando Holiday from MBL.

A councilor for the Democrats, Holiday promoted the hoax that the Ku Klux Klan It's a left-wing movement. In fact, the so-called “National Socialist Party of America” that David Duke should be part, it was the "Nazi Party of America", renamed the "National Socialist White People's Party" and distorted by Holiday to generate misinformation.

To combat fake news, it is necessary to point out names 2b2l5g

In Respect to Journalism, the fantasy of “neutrality” does not fit into the context of fighting fake news in which we live, therefore all names must be cited and criticisms of them must be respected and reflected.
