The challenges and the limits of fact-checking and debunking in the fight against disinformation: the case of the French experience

Florian Dauphin

Résumé

While consideration of the effects of disinformation on public opinion and initiatives to regulate it are not new, the global proliferation of “fake news,” an expression that became widely popular in 2016, and the conspiracy and pseudo-scientific theories that may accompany it seem to mark a certain turning point. On one hand, social media amplify its reverberation, and, on the other hand, the effects of disinformation are a major social problem, omnipresent in debates, causing a certain “social panic”. This awareness of the social problem has reconfigured the relationships between the different actors involved, including politicians, journalists and the public/citizens, and manifests mainly in initiatives to eradicate fake news.
