Multimodal disinformation about otherness on the internet : the spread of racist, xenophobic and Islamophobic fake news in 2020

2021

This work studies the use of disinformation to construct an image of otherness through the internet. We applied a content analysis methodology to the 161 racist, xenophobic or Islamophobic fake news pieces that were discredited in 2020 by the four Spanish information verification media entities accredited by the International Fact-Checking Network: Maldita.es , Newtral , Efe Verifica and Verificat .

DiDuSoNet: A P2P architecture for Ditributed Dunbar-based Social Networks,

2015

Online Social Networks (OSNs) are becoming more and more popular on the Web. Distributed Online Social Networks (DOSNs) are OSNs which do not exploit a central server for storing users data and enable users to have more control on their profile content, ensuring a higher level of privacy. In a DOSN there are some technical challenges to face. One of the most important challenges is the data availability problem when a user is offline. In this paper we propose DiDuSoNet, a novel P2P Distributed Online Social Network where users can exercise full access control on their data. Our system exploits trust relationships for providing a set of important social services, such as trustness, informati…

From the mouth to digital spaces : mediatization and spectacularization of the political “petites phrases”

2023

The political “petites phrases” seems to occupy a growing place in the newspapers and social media. The development of web 2.0 and digital social networks have boosted this political-media phenomenon that was born in the 1970s, thanks to new formats of televised debates. Our study, based on the initial work of Krieg-Planque (2011) and Maingueneau (2012), aims to analyse specific processes and devices accompanying the reproduction of these fragments of political speech on digital social networks. To this end, we will return to the way in which “petites phrases” are detached and put into circulation, as well as to the media devices aimed at putting into spectacle and reinforcing their polemic…
