semantics . a form of communication , written communication . My current knowledge arms me with several tools that may be at the disposal of any author (we are all authors) to identify sources of information to be credible. We made up a term for these propagation of information just as welll in SIngapore . These might be the start:
Sauce
I came to learn of this term from crude sources and dark places of the Internet but that is the phrase the users post. "Pass me the sauce." My mind then struggle to grasp what exactly they meant but in no time at all. There were links to the original copy or a full-length feature of the film. A gif is a "graphics inter___ file" that is the repeat cycle of still images. You can picture it as a flipbook that has still images on every of its page and made in motion to produce "motion film"/video . Now the actors and actresses of these gifs flatterred the users much that they call out the phrase "SAUCE?" Other kind users or the original poster (OP) gladly replies with a hyperlinke to their sourced site/file. So, the first dissect into the grosteque face of "fakeness" is to demand for the source of posted/published news. Example, PLASTIC RICE IN DISTRIBUTION, AVA KEEPS MUM TO KEEP PROFITS FALLING for example. the all caps use of the title should raise air raid bells but we shall jot down the timestamps date , website published and all the meta fields as possible about the post. again, a post, an edited one at that, that is used to twist facts and public opinion might originate from another source and that source discovered might lead to another unmolested unedited footage from another site. Rinse and repeat this dissection until you get no further and are content with the cut into this rotting corpse. Be it you do your own search with the centralised search ngine /crappy one or hire a dozen whitehackers to crack to walls of encryption finding the start of it all shall help in supporting your claim that it is "fake".
What about the news that is conjured out of thin air? THat is with no basis? Good question, we then have to investigate the said event to have happened. Reached out to institutions and conduct interview, ask for comment. Gather more mediums of coverage of the incident at said event. Look, to try to reverse time and place yourself at that event is beyond any bein I know of to be capable to do so. Whenever ANYONE says they have concluded a sound ivestigate is NEVER the whole picture. Planty of people will add their own versions to what they see and react differently. As much as I have provided with ways to teleport yourself or to gather as much information about an incident you cannot uncover the whole truth. A truth that is not molested by other influences and factors. Just like how we are doing this draft right now. At the stroke or rather at one keypress after highlighting this whole paragraph for deletion, you can never ascertain. This leads to
Reaction. Measuring react to the piece of news and any following chain of events that follow. Control freaks will place more emphaisis at this stage just because. A study or "fact finding" requires a huge chunk off any lifespan in hopes to come close to the truth. I shall avoid using the word truth for it has led people to abuse it. We shall say "objectionable". Yup that is the recent "legal" (remember legal does not make it moral) term coming into form. When there is a conflict there are groups. Define those groups and you can make sense why there is the spread of such news. Let's toss in a few like governmentpe hackers facing bankers there are always people behind the spead of such news. They are aware of the actions by discrediting or fabricating such information. There is a goal to attain at the actions taken. So, when there was a pnael set up to invite all the corporate conglomerates of technology such as Facebook Google Singtel etc, there is the question as to why the Panel (forming of ministers and representatives of this panel turn up) They have stated clearly that is because of the security threat that it poses to undermine the standing of the nation. Plain and clear it is somebody who is out against the government. INTEREST Wrap this up to say, determine the parties invovled and you can know more about it.
There are great source of information that you can learn to create credible sources of news and articles. Non-surprisingly you wll make the due connection that with more effort and time placed into publishing those articles and peices they are gained with reputation and respect. With much more in traction they establih themselves as credible. This brings up the demand for the consistency of news that is published by the article that is "fake" How can a news agency or any form of media that ursues this path claim to be consistent? You delve into the history of interviews and coverage and dissect the tone and languge that they convey to their users. Brings back to the paragraph prior that news or journalism is really to tell their versions of the story. This would be and are valid for any that are isolated as "fake" to be used.
A great highlight that has been disclosed in the inquiry (there are things done right by certain individuals in positions of power) and that is "fraction to the fabric of our nation" . My next takeaway forr you is to pay notice to the emotions that said articles conjure after such news is disseminated. The news that concern any form of government is the news that charges the emotions of sections of the ones they are ruling over in representation or not . Look, there are thousands of articles pusblished on sttemit alone that no human can keep up with it. How do humans function? We filter. Through the lenses of our experience that is limited for the vast majority, our decisions are mad to what we physically experience. When most of the peopkle now are having their head elsewhere when their bodies at at the same locatiobn
Perhaps continue the draft after satisfying a few needs that I am experienceing at this point. There is fullness but I just want to stuff something in my muoth. Brother managed to get his replacement battery working for his laptop. We could articulate on the topic of poor tech designs to feed the market forces.
