The Information Disorder
Lesson
Proper There are three categories of Information Disorder: Misinformation, Disinformation, and
Mal-information.
1. Misinformation – refers to information that is false, but the person sharing or
disseminating it unknowingly perceives it as something true.
A. False connection – when headlines or visuals do not support the content
B. Misleading content - by cropping photos or choosing quotes or statistics selectively
2. Disinformation – refers to content that contains false information with the deliberate
intention to mislead or deceive the audience.
A. False context – when genuine content is re-circulated out of its original context
B. Imposter content – persons’ bylines used alongside articles they did not write, or
organizations’ logos used in videos or images they did not create
C. Manipulated content – when genuine content is manipulated to deceive
D. Fabricated content – fabricated “news sites” or fabricated visual
3. Mal-information – refers to information that is based on reality but is used to inflict
harm
Examples:
A. Leaks to the press of private information for personal or corporate interest (e.g.
revenge porn)
B. Using a picture (e.g. of a dead child, with no context or false context) in an effort to
ignite hatred of a particular ethnic group
Media and Information Literacy Skills
Because Information Disorder is prevalent in this times, the need to inculcate and
practice the responsible use of media and information is of utmost importance. As
media is very much embedded in our lives, it is important that we must learn the skills
on how to responsibly and wisely use these information and media tools at our disposal.
Moreover, we must understand that how we use media and information can also affect
the people we know, our community, and the society in general.
The Center for Media Literacy (2005) lists five core concepts of Media Literacy:
 1. All media messages are ‘constructed.’
2. Media messages are constructed using a creative language with its own rules.
3. Different people experience the same media message differently.
4. Media have embedded values and points of view.
5. Most media messages are organized to gain profit and/or power.
In the past, education focused more on languages, math, and sciences. The
educational system put more emphasis on memorization of names, notable dates,
famous people, and formulas – information deemed as necessary to successfully
engage with the world. Technical and Vocational programs focused more on livelihood
expertise. However, today in the Information Age, the need to emphasize on other
essential skills also arises. As we are bombarded with media and information that we
are compelled to deconstruct and evaluate, competence and proficiency in media
literacy are already considered life-long learning skills today. The following are seven
(7) MIL skills that you, as a media user and producer, should develop:
1. The ability and willingness to make an effort to understand content, to pay attention,
and to filter out noise
The quality of our meaning-making is related to the effort we give it. If you want to see
D.
and hear quality content, you should have exert effort to look for such and to
Problem/ understand it.
