HIBRID

After verifying the facts, hibrid.info has confirmed that the content of the articles published by these portals is almost the same and fabricated. The articles describe the singer wearing a necklace that was seen in a video posted by her TikTok account, a necklace that is in the shape of an angel and a cross. According to the article, there began the allusion to a change of religion by singer Dafina Zeqiri.

Dafina Zeqiri has reacted on her Instagram profile to this claim. She has hinted that the media publications are false, through the dissatisfaction expressed in her posts towards the media. Also, in one of the "Stories" on her Instagram profile she has placed the statement that "the religion of the Albanian is Albanianism", hinting that the necklace does not represent her religious beliefs.

Analyze:

Doubtful portals have published articles with titles like this one below - "Dafina Zeqiri changes religion, from Muslim to Christian? (View)".

Based on the facts handled by hibrid.info, it turns out that this article is false. Also, singer Dafina Zeqiri herself has reacted against this false news.

Reasoning:

The "Fake News" rating is given to media reports that are entirely the product of a medium that itself contains factually incorrect claims or information.

Content that is considered fake news can be reliably determined to have been created and distributed with the intent to misinform the public, i.e., to present a claim that is completely false as fact.
