摘要
Dissemination of fake news and information disorder became more apparent in Malaysia since the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to determine the factors of dissemination of fake news and information disorder which would help curbing the unhealthy practice from spreading in the society. No study on this issue was found. Quantitative methodology was adopted 303 respondents in the Klang Valley participated in the survey. Findings show that rules must be spelled out in detail to encounter the problem. Demographic and culture, knowledge and awareness are essential too. It is recommended that information and digital literacy must be inculcated to enable the society encountering fake news and information disorder.
