Rome – In the political elections of 2017, Angela Merkel will have a new 'enemy' to defeat: the buffalo that point to discredit it. To nine months from what is one of the most warm calendar international political Facebook is down in the field to hinder the dissemination of false news, conspiracy theories and the cospiracionist. With the aim of avoiding a repeat of the script that was staged with the Us presidential elections. However, the doubt is that it is already too late. Or at least this is what emerges from a analysis of Buzzfeed from which it came out that chancello r Angela Merkel is at the center of an attack unprecedented, high-profile, fought with blows of fake news and cospiracionist theories that are widely space on the network. This is news partially true or totally false that point to discredit Merkel, both from the point of view of political staff. To the world at large, explain the authors of the investigation, Alberto Nardelli and Craig Silverman are primarily sites to the super-stardom of the extreme right. Not surprisingly, the majority of the false news concerning the migrants, the policies of acceptance and the threat of terrorism.
From the selfie with the terrorist to the wi-fi for the migrants, the buffaloes most popular on Merkel
at the very top of the post on the German chancellor shared, there is the now famous (and entirely false) selfie with the terrorist that has aroused on Facebook more than 32 thousand reactions. The guy it vanish in the photo with the chancellor, however, is not one of the suicide bombers of the the massacre at the airport of Zaventem, Brussels, but a syrian refugee who has now denounced Facebook. Among other hoaxes, the free WiFi to the migrants of the camps, offered to allow them to watch pornographic videos with animals and the arrest of a German official of the BORN in Aleppo, Syria.
A video posted last year, has generated a real and your theory complottistica, according to which Angela Merkel would have a sick mind. The video product from the site ultraconservatore canadian Rebel Media, entitled "Angela Merkel is sick of mind, the canadian television gives the evidence", has been viewed over a million times.
How to propagate fake news
"In Germany, we are witnessing a crisis of trust vis-à-vis the media," he explained to BuzzFeed Lutz Helm of Hoaxmap, a site that focuses on tracking the fake news. "A growing number of people do not believe to the newspapers, the tv news and search for alternative sources". And are these people more likely to believe and spread a hoax.
But how come the fake news? And as you propagate? The 'package' is very important, as the article based on an episode of double reading, totally out of context or completely made up, is accompanied by a title effect. At this point, the site that has published the news she shares on the social through its official profiles. Not only that, to give greater visibility to the hoax, are created specific fake profiles through which to relaunch the news. Through a mechanism of sharing and promoting social the hoax takes hold and reaches a huge number of users.
