Misinformation is a form of communication aimed towards influencing the attitude of the community toward some cause or position by presenting only one side of an argument. Propaganda statements may be partly false and partly true. Propaganda is usually repeated and dispersed over a wide variety of media in order to create the chosen result in audience attitudes.

As opposed to impartiality providing information, propaganda, in its most basic sense, presents information primarily to influence an audience. Propaganda often presents facts selectively (thus possibly lying omission to encourage a particular synthesis, or uses loaded messages to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the attitude toward the subject in the target audience to further a political, religious or commercial agenda. Propaganda can be used as a form of ideological or commercial warfare. Many of journalists practice unbalanced reporting, which is on most cases based on tribalism and these categorized media biases and sometimes recognized as propaganda agenda and those report propaganda are termed as media bias       

 

Media bias is the bias or perceived bias of journalism and news producers within the mass media in the selection of events and stories that are reported and how they are covered. The term “media bias” implies a pervasive or widespread bias contravening the standards of journalism, rather than the perspective of an individual journalist or article.

 

One-sided news means only showing a single side of a complicated issue, or being biased. A newspaper article is one-sided if it presents just one opinion about a controversial topic. When  newspapers gives a one-sided version of the facts, it’s impossible for a viewer to get a clear picture of what’s going on, especially when most political subjects have so many differing opinions. Another, much less controversial meaning of the adjective one-sided is simply “having only one side. Many studies find that presentation of balanced information, offering competing positions, can promote polarization and thus increase pre-existing social divisions. A lie is a false statement to a person or group made by another person or group who knows it is not the whole truth intentionally.

 

A barefaced or bald-faced lie is one that is obviously a lie to those hearing it. A Big Lie is a lie which attempts to trick the victim into believing something major who will likely be contradicted by some information the victim already possesses, or by their common sense. To bluff is to pretend to have a capability or intention one does not actually possess. Bullshit is often used to make the audience believe that one knows far more about the topic by feigning total certainty or making probable predictions.

 

An emergency lie is a strategic lie told when the truth may not be told because, for example, harm to a third party would result. An exaggeration (or hyperbole) occurs when the most fundamental aspects of a statement are true, but only to a limited extent. A fabrication is a lie told when someone submits a statement as truth without knowing for certain whether or not it actually is true. A half-truth is a deceptive statement that includes some element of truth.  The statement might be partly true, the statement may be totally true but only part of the whole truth, or it may employ some deceptive element.

 

Disinformation is intentionally false or inaccurate information that is spread deliberately. It is an act of deception and false statements to convince someone of untruth. Disinformation should not be confused with misinformation that is unintentionally false. Unlike traditional propaganda techniques designed to engage emotional support, disinformation is designed to manipulate the audience at the rational level by either discrediting conflicting information or supporting false conclusions.

 

News satire, also called fake news, is a type of misrepresentation accessible in a format typical of mainstream journalism and called a satire because of its content. News satire has been around almost as long as journalism itself, but it is particularly popular on the newspapers and websites  where it is relatively easy to mimic a credible news source and stories may achieve wide distribution from nearly any site.

 

Anti-social behavior is the behavior that lacks consideration for others and may cause damage to the society intentionally or through negligence. This is the opposite of pro-social behavior, which helps or benefits the society. Tribalism, Nepotism and sectionalism practiced by Haatuf newspaper are three very serious elements haunting our people in Somali-land. Tribalism, nepotism and sectionalism epidemic now afflicting for some media in Somali-land could be seriously damage the relationship existing between society because those intending to hurt the feeling of others without practical grounds.   In conclusion, those who write false information deliberate against other are subject for punishment as per the international law. it has generally been agreed that punishment requires moral as well as legal and political justification. While philosophers almost all agree that punishment is at least sometimes justifiable, they offer various accounts of how it is to be justified as well as what the infliction of punishment is designed to protect – rights of others. Intended false new reporting is worse than misleading. Last, but not the least, this newspaper is categorized as BEEN-TUF OR XAARAN TUF.
