Resumo: | This Paper aims to outline the debate on social media’s influence and contribution in
regards to the spreading of fake news during the 2018 presidential campaign in
Brazil. Social media has been gaining significant relevance in electoral campaigns
with impact over how the voters vote. Studies substantiate that the virtual
environment had great influence over Donald Trump’s election in the United States
in 2016, and that social media benefited the candidate with an intense fraudulent
campaign, using fake news from a post-truth perspective, which also can be
observed in the 2018 Brazilian election. The justification for this research is based on
the evident similarities between the 2016 American and the 2018 Brazilian
presidential elections, where the use of analogous campaign tools by the presidential
candidate Jair Messias Bolsonaro to reach victory are noticeable. The electoral
justice was faced with the challenge of combating fake news, however, it is
undeniable that the Superior Electoral Court could not manage to contain fake news
dissemination given the speed with which it spreads. Therefore, it can be concluded
that although the STF has tactics to prevent and punish the spread of this type of
news, these have shown to be insufficient. For this reason, there is a demand for
alternative solutions, such as more effective laws, for both providers and Internet
users, that intend to combat the crime in focus. In methodological terms, we chose a
qualitative approach, for the purposes, exploratory, as the procedure will be
bibliographic and documentary, through books, articles, periodicals, internet, in
addition to journalistic publications. |
