Channel Four undermines social integrity, decreases trust, and thus damages society’s security and welfare. Channel Four’s consequences could pose serious security threats. The spread of misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation (MDM) online has become one of the most pressing issues of our time. Around the world, people have been inundated with false, misleading, and deceptive information about health, politics, and science.
Journalists must fight back because murderers are on the front lines of these digital battles over truth.
Spreading fake news must be a punishable crime.
