Her er et glimrende eksempel på, hvordan misinformation spreder sig som en steppebrand. Mellemfolkeligt Samvirke @ActionAidDK kører nu en kampagne baseret på decideret misinformation om, at Israels nationale sikkerhedsminister opfordrer til, at 30-40 vilkårlige palæstinensere skal slås ihjel hver dag i Gaza. Knap 2.000 mennesker har liket opslaget på Instagram indtil nu. Som jeg redegjorde for tidligere på ugen, er det en overlagt løgn. Ministeren gjorde det soleklart i interviewet, at det var terrorister, der skulle slås ihjel – ikke civile. Mellemfolkeligt Samvirke bruger altså nu – på samme måde som Enhedslisten – misinformation til at opfordre til sanktioner mod Israel. Og endnu en gang må jeg bare sige, at vi som medier er vagthunde og derfor selvfølgelig skal oplyse befolkningen, når deres skattekroner går til organisationer, der spreder misinformation. Det er bogstaveligt talt en del af vores arbejde. Så jeg håber, at andre medier vil følge op på denne sag, inden den spreder sig endnu mere. #Misinformation #MediaLiteracy #FactCheck
