Fake news refers to the deliberate creation and dissemination of false or misleading information, particularly through digital media, with the intent to deceive or manipulate public opinion. The term has gained significant traction in recent years, often used to describe fabricated stories that mimic real news reports, aiming to spread disinformation for political, financial, or social gain. In Hebrew, the term is translated as חדשות מזויפות (khadashot mezuyafot). Similar translations include noticias falsas in Spanish, fausses nouvelles in French, and falsche Nachrichten in German. The phenomenon of fake news has become a critical issue in the digital age, where the rapid spread of information through social media platforms can amplify its impact. It poses challenges to journalism, democracy, and societal trust, as it can influence elections, fuel social unrest, and distort public discourse. The rise of fake news has also spurred efforts to combat it, including fact-checking initiatives, media literacy programs, and technological solutions aimed at detecting and mitigating the spread of disinformation.

False or misleading information presented as real
Fake news
Fake news or information disorder is false or misleading information claiming the aesthetics and legitimacy of news. Fake news often has the aim of damaging the reputation of a person or entity, or making money through advertising revenue. Although false news has always been spread throughout history, the term fake news was first used in the 1890s when sensational reports in newspapers were common. Nevertheless, the term does not have a fixed definition and has been applied broadly to any type of false information presented as news. It has also been used by high-profile people to apply to any news unfavorable to them. Further, disinformation involves spreading false information with harmful intent and is sometimes generated and propagated by hostile foreign actors, particularly during elections. In some definitions, fake news includes satirical articles misinterpreted as genuine, and articles that employ sensationalist or clickbait headlines that are not supported in the text. Because of this diversity of types of false news, researchers are beginning to favour information disorder as a more neutral and informative term. It can spread through fake news websites.
