Abstract

Disinformation/mesenformation, or misinformation as it is commonly used in Turkish, is a global issue. Therefore, resilience and resistance to misinformation must be organized globally. However, the problem will continue to grow as the issue is handled independently from the local, unless preventive actions are produced by covering local semantics. Covering the local here is possible by centered on media users as social actors and understanding the role of misinformation both online and offline in their daily lives. Here, the concept of trust stands as an important determinant that needs to be addressed.
