Rather than approaching deepfakes as a 'journalistic apocalypse, ' this book contextualises them in the larger historical practice of fact-checking and on a continuum of technological advances in image and video manipulation. Encouraging readers to view fact-checking as a multimodal process, it stresses the importance of combining philosophical and technical tools, especially ones based in epistemology and artifical intelligence (AI), in addition to the 'pavement pounding' essentials of good journalism. The book concludes with a chapter addressing how to explain deepfakes to a public progressively more concerned about the realities and consequences of AI and misinformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFake-Checking\u003c\/em\u003e serves as a practical reference for journalists and advanced media students who are increasingly required to identify and verify potential deepfakes and their future iterations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is supported by online resources which can be accessed at www.routledge.com\/9781032741321.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrea Hickerson\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor and Dean of the School of Journalism and New Media at the University of Mississippi, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChristopher Schwartz \u003c\/b\u003eis Research Scientist at the Department of Cybersecurity, Rochester Institute of Technology, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMatthew Wright \u003c\/b\u003eis Kevin O'Sullivan Professor and Chair of Cybersecurity at Rochester Institute of Technology, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 16, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53801427173683,"sku":"9781032741321","price":100.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/DBn4UUQNvf9781032741321_4f8588f1-a431-4a44-8fcc-171c519b8089.webp?v=1785968877","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/fake-checking-a-journalists-guide-to-deepfakes-paperback-1","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
