Misinformation and disinformation are a new shape of truth or alternatively a new form of a lie and either can contain doctored narratives. The words are a new norm in the news media and a sweet dressing for their word salad. In many cases, the use of misinformation and disinformation is not based on actual fact, but rather anything in opposition to the user’s opinion. People that use the terms often cite their care, concern, and compassion for people, assuming their information and facts are much more medicinal and cathartic for the general population. They will claim opposing information is socially dangerous and destabilizes public trust. However, in the real world, it is up to the listener and reader to determine and adjudge what is right or in some cases “more accurate”.
