Key Takeaway
Disinformation works by:
- Triggering emotion
- Exploiting repetition
- Mimicking trustworthy formats or being shared by generally trustworthy platforms
- Reducing time for reflection
Children do not need adults to simply label content as “fake.”
They need adults to slow the process, name the tactics, and model how to examine
intent and context.
