Фейковизация и постправдизация информационной повестки дня в контексте первой «волны» пандемии коронавируса (COVID-19)
The article is devoted to the substantiation of the synchronized processes of fakeization and post-truthization of the information agenda, disposed in the context of the first "wave" of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The methods of case study, discourse analysis and comparative analysis are applied. The empirical base is the materials of television channels and social networks. Timeline of the study: March-June 2020. Based on the results of the study, it is concluded that the synchronization of the processes of fakeization and post-truthization of the information agenda in the context of the first "wave" of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is explained by the problematization simultaneously with the "high and low threshold" – the spread of this social precedent to the entire social space and complete the lack of personal experience among individuals, as a result of which social disorientation was observed – the manipulative susceptibility of society. The synchronized processes of fakeization and post-truthization of the information agenda are due to the differentiated motives of the actors. Within the framework of the author's concept of pseudo news, it is determined that fake acts as a product of mass consciousness, then post-truth – by the planned deliberate tactics of media controllers. Inspiring the processes of fakeization and post-truthization of the information agenda correlated with stable narratives of the main communication channels (the Internet and television), strengthening the established media picture, thereby constituting the qualification of conditional "heroes" and "enemies" in public opinion.
