Fake News in Digital Cultures presents a new approach to
understanding disinformation and misinformation in contemporary
digital communication, arguing that fake news is not an alien
phenomenon undertaken by bad actors, but a logical outcome of
contemporary digital and popular culture, conceptual changes
meaning and truth, and shifts in the social practice of trust,
attitude and creativity. Looking not to the problems of the present
era but towards the continuing development of a future digital
media ecology, the authors explore the emergence of practices of
deliberate disinformation. This includes the circulation of
misleading content or misinformation, the development of new
technological applications such as the deepfake, and how they
intersect with conspiracy theories, populism, global crises,
popular disenfranchisement, and new practices of regulating
misleading content and promoting new media and digital literacies.
