The spread of hoax news in digital media is a serious problem because it can affect public opinion and social stability. This study aims to classify hoax news using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. The dataset used is a hoax clarification dataset from the Ministry of Communication and Digital (Komdigi) of the Republic of Indonesia, totaling 1,872 data. The research process includes data collection, text pre-processing, feature extraction using TF-IDF, and classification using the SVM algorithm. Implementation was carried out using Google Colaboratory (Google Colab). Test results show that the SVM algorithm is able to provide good performance in classifying hoax news based on its topic with satisfactory accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score values.
