Abstract(s)
Os media modernos e alternativos têm vindo a tomar um papel cada vez mais
central nas eleições, em particular nas eleições dos Estados Unidos da América. Nos dias
de hoje, as redes sociais têm um lugar proeminente nas campanhas eleitorais norteamericanas, particularmente na última campanha presidencial. As campanhas eleitorais
tornaram-se numa espécie de laboratório que desenvolve aplicações políticas que são
transferidas para políticas pós-eleitorais e estabelecem novas normas para a política de
media em subsequentes campanhas. Este tipo de media tem vindo a ganhar destaque
com o eleitorado como principal fonte de informação, no que toca as campanhas
eleitorais, apesar de grande parte do eleitorado ainda utilizar a televisão como fonte
principal de informação. Estes trouxeram ainda alterações ao modo como as campanhas
se organizam, o modo como a cobertura dos media é feito, assim como influenciou o
envolvimento do eleitorado. Sendo que, grande parte dos adultos norte-americanos
recebe as notícias através de meios digitais.
Esta nova era digital não trouxe somente vantagens, a estas acoplou-se as fake
news. Estas são artigos de notícias criados intencionalmente falsos, ainda que este facto
seja facilmente verificável, que podem, de um certo modo enganar os eleitores. Este tipo
de notícias é mais barato e mais fácil de fornecer do que as suas homólogas. As fake news
não podem somente ser consideradas em relação à sua forma ou conteúdo, mas também
em relação às infraestruturas mediadoras, plataformas e culturas participativas que
auxiliam na sua proliferação. Isto porque os artigo contendo estórias desapegadas da
realidade tornam fake news somente quando alcançam um grande público que as
conteste, sinalize e desminta.
Para combater a rápida difusão das fake news vários atores partilharam a sua
contribuição ou intenção de contribuir de modo a travar o avanço desmesurado destas.
Dentro destes atores encontram-se plataformas digitais, tais como as redes sociais, os
meios de comunicação tradicionais, diversos projetos de pesquisa que procuram
monitorizar conteúdos falsos e vários governos.

Election campaigns have become a kind of laboratory that develops political applications that are transferred to post-election policies and set new standards for media policy in subsequent campaigns. This type of media has been gaining prominence with the electorate as the main source of information when it comes to election campaigns, even though a large part of the electorate still uses television as the main source of information. They have also brought changes to the way campaigns are organised, the way media coverage is done, as well as influenced the involvement of the electorate. With most American adults receiving the news through digital media. This new digital era has not only brought advantages, but also fake news. These are news articles created deliberately false, even if the facts are easily verifiable, which can in a way mislead voters. This kind of news is cheaper and easier to provide than its counterparts. Fake news can not only be considered in relation to its form or content, but also in relation to the mediating infrastructures, platforms and participatory cultures that help in its proliferation. This is because articles containing stories detached from reality make fake news only when they reach a large audience that contests, signals and denies them. To combat the rapid spread of fake news, several actors have shared their contribution or intention to contribute in order to halt their disproportionate advance. Within these actors are digital platforms such as social networks, traditional media, various research projects that seek to monitor fake content and various governments.
