This paper argues that ‘fake news’ is endemic to ‘information society’ as a whole, not just the internet or news media. It is part of daily experience, generated by established patterns of communication, social group categorisation, framing, and patterns of power. These disruptions are intensified though interacting with the dynamics of information capitalism, which values strategic effectiveness more than accuracy. Assuming democratic cosmopolitan society must have good communication, this paper explores the factors which produce obstacles to such communicative processes, as th e patterns which support bad communication and disinformation must be understood before they can be dealt with.

虚假信息社会，传播与世界民主

本文认为，“假新闻”是整个“信息社会”的地方，而不仅仅是互联网或新闻媒体。它是日常经验的一部分，是由既定的沟通模式，社会群体分类，框架和权力模式产生的。通过与信息资本主义的动态相互作用，这些破坏加剧了，信息资本主义更重视战略效力而不是准确性。假设民主世界社会必须有良好的沟通，本文探讨了阻碍此类沟通过程的因素，因为必须先理解支持不良沟通和虚假信息的模式，然后才能加以处理。
