Pada zaman modern ini, teknologi semakin berkembang pesat. Gadget dan internet pun seakan sudah menjadi kekasih bagi generasi millennial. Generasi millennial  saat ini (pada tahun 2017) adalah mereka yang berusia 17-36 tahun; mereka yang kini berperan sebagai mahasiswa, early jobber, dan orangtua muda. Akses media sosial yang mudah menyebabkan mudahnya pula peredaran berita bohong (hoax) di masyarakat. Hoax beragam bentuknya; mulai dari hoax dalam aspek pendidikan, kesehatan hingga politik. Ujaran kebencian yang tersebar di dunia nyata maupun dunia maya mengiringi perkembangan hoax yang berakibat pada pecahnya persatuan masyarakat yang telah dibangun dengan asas gotongroyong. Untuk itu, pengkajian ulang serta penerapan berpikir kritis ala filsafat yang didasarkan pada hadis menjadi salah satu tawaran yang solutif bagi generasi millennial sebagai benteng pertahanan dari godaan-godaan efek dari globalisasi, khususnya dalam mengatasi virus hoax yang telah merajalela. Dengan pengkajian itu, diharapkan generasi millennial dapat mewujudkan perdamaian di dunia ini; khususnya di Indonesia.AbstractIn this modern age, technology is growing rapidly. Gadgets and the internet seemed to have become lovers for the millennial generation. The current millennial generation (in 2017) are those aged 17-36; those who now act as students, early jobber, and young parents. The easy access of social media causes the easy circulation of false news (hoaxes) in the community. Hoax varies in shape; ranging from hoaxes in aspects of education, health to politics. Hate speech that spread in the real world and cyberspace accompanied the development of hoax which resulted in the outbreak of community unity that has been built with the principle of gotongroyong. For that reason, the review and application of philosophical-based philosophical critical thinking is one of the most solemn proposals for the millennial generation as a bastion of the temptations of the effects of globalization, particularly in the prevention of rampant hoaxes. With that assessment, millennials are expected to bring about peace in this world; especially in Indonesia.

Abstract To better understand the spread of fake news in the Internet age, it is important to uncover the variables that influence the perceived truth of information. Although previous research identified several reliable predictors of truth judgments—such as source credibility, repeated information exposure, and presentation format—little is known about their simultaneous effects. In a series of four experiments, we investigated how the abovementioned factors jointly affect the perceived truth of statements (Experiments 1 and 2) and simulated social media postings (Experiments 3 and 4). Experiment 1 explored the role of source credibility (high vs. low vs. no source information) and presentation format (with vs. without a picture). In Experiments 2 and 3, we additionally manipulated repeated exposure (yes vs. no). Finally, Experiment 4 examined the role of source credibility (high vs. low) and type of repetition (congruent vs. incongruent vs. no repetition) in further detail. In sum, we found no effect of presentation format on truth judgments, but strong, additive effects of source credibility and repetition. Truth judgments were higher for information presented by credible sources than non-credible sources and information without sources. Moreover, congruent (i.e., verbatim) repetition increased perceived truth whereas semantically incongruent repetition decreased perceived truth, irrespectively of the source. Our findings show that people do not rely on a single judgment cue when evaluating a statement’s truth but take source credibility and their meta-cognitive feelings into account.

The popularity of the internet has increased the use of e-commerce websites and news channels. Fake news has been around for many years, and with the arrival of social media and modern-day news at its peak, easy access to e-platform and exponential growth of the knowledge available on social media networks has made it intricate to differentiate between right and wrong information, which has caused large effects on the offline society already. A crucial goal in improving the trustworthiness of data in online social networks is to spot fake news so the detection of spam news becomes important. For sentiment mining, the authors specialise in leveraging Facebook, Twitter, and Whatsapp, the most prominent microblogging platforms. They illustrate how to assemble a corpus automatically for sentiment analysis and opinion mining. They create a sentiment classifier using the corpus that can classify between fake, real, and neutral opinions in a document.

This paper provides critical reflections on Manuel Castells’ (2012) book Networks of Outrage and Hope. Social Movements in the Internet Age that analyses the “nature and perspectives of networked social movements” (p. 4) and gives special focus to the role of “social media” in movements that emerged in 2011 in Tunisia, Iceland, Egypt, Spain and the United States. I situate Castells’ book in an intellectual discourse that focuses on the political implications of social media and that has involved Clay Shirky, Malcolm Gladwell and Evgeny Morozov. The article also discusses the role of social theory and empirical research in Castells’ book, presents as an alternative a theoretical model of the relationship between social movements and the media, discusses the implications that some empirical data that focus on social media in the Egyptian revolution and the Occupy Wall Street movement have for Castells’ approach, discusses how Castells positions himself towards capitalism and compares his explanation of the crisis and his political views to David Harvey’s approach. Section overview: 1. Introduction 2. Social Media and Politics: A Controversy between Clay Shirky, Malcolm Gladwell and Evgeny Morozov 3. Castells on Social Media in the Context of Protests and Revolutions: The Dimension of Social Theory 4. Social Theory Recovered: A Model of the Relationship between Social Movements and the Media 5.

The proliferation and access to social media platforms that allow easy access to information systems and services, content creation, and sharing, in a convenient form, has taken education administration and management by storm. Facebook is one of the many online media that can let education administrators and managers interact with each other or their subordinates by sharing information about themselves or any topical community issue via personal profiles or institutional profiles. Furthermore, it is noted that social media applications by their nature have the capabilities of educating, informing, entertaining (leisure), and socializing the audience. The research revealed that there are various groups on Facebook where youthful education administrators can use to post educational information and discuss pertinent issues concerning their institutions. Indeed, social media are being used as channels to foster economic, social, and political development education among Namibian educational administrators.


Crisis management and communication are increasingly being challenged by the impact of social media as a forum for crisis communication.

Our review presents that, Situational Crisis Communication Theory (SCCT) is the most dominant theory for crisis communication and twitter is the dominant social network site. Also, the review identifies decision-making, community resilience, privacy issues, information sharing and seeking, social media based crisis communication for future studies.
