This research article attempts to understand the current situation of fake news on social media in India. The study focused on four characteristics of fake news based on four research questions: subject matter, presentation elements of fake news, debunking tool(s) or technique(s) used, and the social media site on which the fake news story was shared. A systematic sampling method was used to select a sample of 90 debunked fake news stories from two Indian fact-checking websites, Alt News and Factly, from December 2019 to February 2020. A content analysis of the four characteristics of fake news stories was carefully analyzed, classified, coded, and presented. The results show that most of the fake news stories were related to politics in India. The majority of the fake news was shared via a video with text in which narrative was changed to mislead users. For the largest number of debunked fake news stories, information from official or primary sources, such as reports, data, statements, announcements, or updates were used to debunk false claims.

본 연구는 다매체 다채널 시대를 맞아 국내 주요 5개 방송사의 뉴스 시청자는 어떤 유형의 사람들이며 그들은 어떤 이유에서 특정 채널의 뉴스를 선택하는지를 규명하고자 실시되었다. 이 연구는 4개의 TV 뉴스 콘텐츠의 채널 선택 유형(channel loyalty type, brief news type, central watcher type, peripheral watcher type)을 귀납적으로 측정, 채널 선택 유형에 따른 인구통계학적 특성과 채널 선택 특성 등을 밝히는데 목적이 있다. 연구 결과 'brief news' type이 가장 높은 비율을 차지해 생활 패턴의 변화와 뉴스시청 행위가 밀접한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있다. 또 뉴스 채널 선택 유형에 따라 성(性)과 연령, 직업 등 인구통계학적 특성이 나타났다. 아울러 방송사별로 시청자들의 채널 선택 유형에 나름대로 특징이 있는 것으로 분석됐다. 즉 KBS1은 'central watcher', MBC는 'channel loyalty', SBS는 'peripheral watcher', YTN은 'brief news' type이 특징적으로 나타났고 KBS2는 뚜렷한 특징이 없는 것으로 분석됐다.

As online communities proliferate, online news sites have received great attention in news media research. Although most of the online news sites provide contents for free, some have adopted the Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW) model by offering a voluntary payment option to the readers. In this study, we investigate the factors which influence subscribers' voluntary payment behavior on an online news site. Drawing upon both the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) framework and the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM), we hypothesize that appreciation has a direct effect on the subscribers' voluntary payment behavior, whereas central factors (positive emotional content, cognitive content) and peripheral factors (news sharing, news article length) of the news articles have indirect impacts on voluntary payment behavior through the enhanced appreciation. Based on an empirical analysis of 172 news articles from the Korean online news site that adopted the PWYW pricing model (i.e., Ohmynews.com), we find that appreciation plays a critical role in voluntary payment behavior and that peripheral factors have significant impacts on appreciation. However, the impacts of central factors on appreciation are not found. By identifying influencing factors of subscribers' voluntary payment behavior on online news sites for the first time, this paper suggests a prospective alternative profit model for online news providers faced with fierce competition.

This study explored the effects of the parasocial relationship formed by CCTV (China Central Television) TV news and non-traditional news on users' perceived media credibility and their online and offline political participation. This study conducted a survey with the Chinese CCTV users between April 19 and April 30, 2021, and finally, 701 respondents' data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The study results showed that both TV news and non-traditional news had positive effects on parasocial relationships and the parasocial relationship positively influenced media credibility, which subsequently facilitated political participation. However, there was no direct effect between media usage and media credibility. This implies the important mediating role of parasocial interactions, which enables CCTV news to gain media credibility and subsequently influence political participation. This study suggests that CCTV needs to improve the parasocial interactions between their audience and media figures by utilizing the interactive mechanism of non-traditional media.
