Legal factors as the foundation for a model of fake news linguistic analysis
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The study aims to develop a methodology for juridical linguistic analysis of fake news messages, relying on legal factors. The scientific novelty of the study lies in identifying a system of legal and linguistic factors, as well as establishing clear correlations between them. As a result, it was found that legal features of fake news play a dominant role, determining the selection of corresponding linguistic parameters, the system of questions formulated by law enforcement, and the initial juridification of fake news. Taking into account additional linguistic features (communicative impulse to perform an action in the interests of the communicator, the use of logical and emotional channels of influence on the recipient, intensification of the subject of speech, semantics of “uncertainty”, etc.) allows for an increase in the effectiveness of juridical linguistic analysis. The proposed methodology serves as the foundation for developing a digital model for identifying fake news.
