Analyze:
The dubious portal "mitrovicapress.com" has published an article with a false title and content. The same article was also shared on the social network Facebook by the page "Gazeta Aktive", which has nearly 90 thousand likes.
This fake news posted on Facebook has sparked numerous reactions from readers, with over 70 comments. After fact-checking analysis by hibrid.info, it appears that this article is considered "fake news" and "clickbait."
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 rated as 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.
The “Clickbait” rating is given to texts whose title has no basis in the content of the following text. Such texts and articles aim to attract the attention of the reader or even the consumer with a sensational title by promising content that does not actually exist and are created mainly out of financial interest, that is, due to increased readability. So, this type of text is intended only to click, which can be converted into a profit for the content producer.
