• Abstract: The digitalization of news media become a good indicator of progress and signal to more threats. Media disinformation or fake news is one of these threats, and it is necessary to take any action in fighting disinformation. This paper utilizes ground truth-based annotations and TF-IDF as feature extraction for the news articles which is then used as a training data set for Multinomial Naive Bayes. The model has an accuracy of 99.46% in training and 88.98% in predicting unseen data. Tagging fake news as real news is a concerning point on the prediction that is indicated in the F1 score of 89.68%. This could lead to a negative impact. To prevent this to happen it is suggested to further improve the corpus collection, and use an ensemble machine learning to reinforce the prediction

  We propose a novel framework for generating training examples informed by the known styles and strategies of human-authored propaganda. Specifically, we perform self-critical sequence training guided by natural language inference to ensure the validity of the generated articles. Our experimental results show that fake news detectors trained on PropaNews are better at detecting human-written disinformation by 3.62 - 7.69% F1 score on two public datasets.

  We provide a new multimodal labeled dataset containing news articles and tweets on the COVID-19 vaccine. We combine ratings from three news media ranking sites to classify the news dataset into two levels of credibility: reliable and unreliable. We find that the proposed architecture has an F-Score of 0.919 and accuracy of 0.882 for fake news detection.

  We propose a novel interpretable fake news detection framework based on the recently introduced Tsetlin Machine (TM) We use the conjunctive clauses of the TM to capture lexical and semantic properties of both true and fake news text. For evaluation, we conduct experiments on two publicly available datasets, PolitiFact and GossipCop, and demonstrate that the TM framework significantly outperforms previously published baselines by at least $5%$ in terms of accuracy.
