Re-thinking news: Information design and “antibody” contents
2022
Rethinking news and producing quality (“antibody”) contents as a remedy against the rampant proliferation of fake news (and the related erosion of democracy), starting from the values and approaches shared by the worlds of design and journalism can be - and certainly are - an effective and interesting way forward. The fertile confluence of the body of knowledge (and know-how) of these two disciplines has already produced excellent results, starting with design-driven experiments tried and tested in several significant experiences in Italy and abroad. As Paolo Ciuccarelli stated, “once again, designers as ‘meaning makers’ find today in the narrative of the world of the infosphere a design gr…

Éléments d'analyse économique des faux diplômes
2007
Despite the fact that fake degrees have been used since the creation of legitimate diplomas, the fake degrees business is reaching epidemic proportions, notably because of globalization, new information and communication technologies and “diploma race”. We define the concept of fake degrees and distinguish different kinds of fakes. We also indicate the main functions of diplomas in the economic literature. We identify the supply and demand sides of the market of fake degrees and also consider other affected parties. We show that this growing business generates several negative spillovers that harm, among others, non traditional education institutions such as distance learning institutions a…
Information disorder. Learning to recognize fake news
2022
The advent of the internet and digital platforms has revolutionised the way information is produced and disseminated. The aim of this paper was to examine whether it is possible to draw from Article 21 of the Italian Constitution that there is a right to good information, as an expression of the rights to be informed and to receive information. It also looked at what form of regulation is possible for the dissemination of information on the Web in order to ensure that it is true, objective, and unbiased and whether public- only regulation, private- only regulation or a form of co- regulation, which seems to be model chosen in the EU’s draft Regulation, the so- called Digital Services Act, i…
F wie Fake News – Phatische Falschmeldungen zwischen Propaganda und Parodie
2018
Bei aller Kritik am Begriff und den Zweifeln an der wesenhaften Neuigkeit des Phanomens ist das Etikett „Fake News“ insofern sinnvoll, als solche weniger Ursache denn Symptom einer aktuellen (Problem-)Situation sind. Diese betrifft nicht nur den Ruf und die Rolle von Journalismus in der digitalmedialen Welt oder die Regeln offentlicher Kommunikation im Social Web, sondern den Stellenwertwandel publizistischer Faktizitat. Ausgehend vom Kernbegriff der Falschung fasst der Beitrag Fake News als aktuelle Erscheinungsformen eines, selbst im Falle etwa von Verhetzung, quasi-ironischen Spiels mit der Gattung „Nachricht“ und ihren konventionell-stilistischen Authentizitatsmarkern auf. Jenseits des …
Journalism and fake news in the Covid-19 era. Perspectives for media education in Italy
2020
In this article, drawing from the data collected by the AGCOM during the pandemic crisis, we argue that the emergence of COVID 19 has made more evident the new relationships between the informative cybercascades, the significant need of news during a crisis, the presence of disinformation online, and the relevant consequences on collective narrations, often producing a generalized panic. We also argue that infotainment can be considered a critical turning point in the relationship between true and false in the news because of its fusion of facts, drama, and emotional narrative frames so that it is no longer possible to separate reality from media reconstruction of it. We finally argue that …
Conspiracy Theories and (the) Media (Studies)
2017
Traditionally, research on conspiracy theories (CT) is not at the heart of communication and media studies. Still there are theories, concepts and findings in this discipline which can be fruitfully linked to CT research. If one sees CT as certain forms of narratives, one important question is how they spread within societies, communities and groups. To analyse this, one can apply the concept of "diffusion of innovations", alongside theories and concepts which stem from media studies, such as agenda setting or two-step flow of communication. Moreover, research on strategic and political communication, news bias and even fake news can be linked to the study of CT.

2022
