Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio fue ir más allá del discurso de la posverdad: algunas reflexiones sobre la idea de fake news basadas en la lingüística de corpus (un análisis educativo). Este artículo ilustra cómo nos engañamos a nosotros mismos al intentar comprender las noticias falsas a través de la noción de una sociedad posterior a la verdad. Argumentamos que tanto los conceptos de noticias falsas como de posverdad no son una aberración de la historia de las prácticas mediáticas ni tampoco son de origen contemporáneo. Son una parte intrincada de las prácticas discursivas en las que se involucran los medios como institución. El artículo se basa en el enfoque de Foucault de las prácticas discursivas y aplica un marco metadiscursivo para rastrear la genealogía de la posverdad y las noticias falsas en un contexto indio. El artículo también ofrece una reflexión crítica sobre algunas de las estrategias clave para contener y contrarrestar las noticias falsas. Por ejemplo, la alfabetización mediática y los enfoques lingüísticos como la lingüística de corpus para detectar noticias falsas.
