Resumen
FACHIN, Juliana; CAMELO DE ARAUJO, Nelma y CARVALHO DE SOUSA, Juliana. Credibility of Information in Covid-19 Times. Rev. Interam. Bibliot [online]. 2020, vol.43, n.3, e3. Epub 04-Mayo-2021. ISSN 0120-0976. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.rib.v43n3erf3.
This reflection study is exploratory and descriptive. As a objective, we sought to verify elements that make it possible to assess the credibility of the information available on the Web. To meet the proposed objective, a literature review was applied in order to identify publications that deal with the topics: fake news, Post-truth, Infodemia, Misinformation, Checking and Credibility of information. It is concluded that the fact-checking method was considered valid in the content accreditation, since it starts from checking the entire informational context, going through validation steps, which allows the transparency of the method and the sources checked. Due to a large amount of information available on the internet, the practice of content checking has become necessary for the verification and certification of publications, relevant to the public interest, combating fake news and the movement of infodemia, and disinformation in today's society.
Palabras clave : Fake news; post-truth; infodemia; disinformation; information check; credibility of information.
