Abstract

The research explored the social discourse of fake news in the French language and the French government’s efforts to overcome it with digital media literacy through social media. Fake news was getting more intense with the existence of social media as an instrument of dissemination. The fake news data were observed first, then selected according to the intensity of its distribution, and taken through social media platforms with the most users in France, namely Facebook and Twitter. Then this data set was verified and confirmed through the official fact-checking platform to ensure that the data text was fake news. This data verification method also practiced techniques socialized by the French government through a digital media literacy program. All data were analyzed qualitatively using a critical paradigm, particularly critical sociolinguistics, and post-truth theory. The analysis results show a relationship between language practice through fake news texts circulating on social media and the practice of government propaganda discourse through digital media literacy. These two practices also give rise to certain social practices and movements in French society. This also shows that digital media literacy efforts alone are ineffective enough to overcome the problems caused by fake news in society.

Abstract

This research examines the language politics carried out in handling fake news discourse through French and Indonesian online media platforms. As the internet-based communication has grown significantly in number, variety, quality and speed, making it also ideal to the fake news spread, then it requires certain language policy strategies to mitigate their destructive effect. The data of this research uses archives of online media articles, and related government websites in recent years in both countries, to look for the most recent discussions which are related to the discourse of handling fake news. Government and media discourses related to this matter are also highlighted. All the data is classified and analysed using the conceptual framework of language politics from Robert L Cooper. Since the nature of the research delves with discourses, it will be crucial to consider the discourse analysis method that refers to the critical and post-structural paradigms. Consequently, interdiscursivity and intertextuality are used as the main tools in the methodology of data analysis. As the result of this study, it shows that solid and consistent legal instruments have positive implications for maintaining journalistic quality in fighting fake news. The fake news strategy is also found in the narratives made by the authorities, but the terminologies given are different from the lexical labels to the discourse of political opponents in the public sphere. France and Indonesia utilise distinct strategies in addressing online media fake news.

Abstract

Linguistic instruments together with informatics tools can be used to detect fake news narratives, which are sometimes increasingly difficult to distinguish from true news. This study tries to design the stages of detection of lies in the fake news discourse found in French alternative media using linguistic features. This approach is also known as forensic linguistic theory developed by Malcolm Coulthard. The data used are survey result among the francophone media consumers in Indonesia and articles originated from three different French alternative news media platform that have been identified as fake news by checking through fake news verification sites available on several investigator media platforms. These three articles are classified and analyzed using intertextuality and interdiscursivity methods within the forensic linguistic concepts. Critical perspective is used as the conceptual framework throughout this research. The results of the analysis show that 14.3% of respondents are not able to identify the fake news in the media they consumed. The linguistic features within 254 sentences contained deceits filtered from three medias tend to often use lexical morpheme components and syntactic patterns that provoke emotions and empathy in readers. Furthermore sentences structures are found in passive patterns frequently and use impersonal subjects as markers to a fewer references and cognitive complexity.
