Abstract

Fake News is a global phenomenon that is increasing. They have the potential to spread rapidly in social media due to the ease of sharing and to the large audiences these platforms can reach. Users need to be vigilant in checking the accuracy of the information they consume. Considering that some older persons do not have the digital literacy to distinguish between trustable digital sources, this paper depicts a proposal for a system that sends trustable news to the elderly through TV notifications – by far the most used media device of this target group.
