MISinformation is something that’s wrong by MIStake.
DISinformation is something that’s wrong Deliberately.
Here are a couple of my favorite DISs:
Oil, gas, and coal are fossil fuels - no they are organic (organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon).
Climate change is a result of human activity - no, it’s natural.
Socialism (and any variant) is a net positive - no, free markets and limited government works best.
Search engine misinformation:
I googled “electricity price by nation.” The top ten nations in price have invested heavily in renewable electricity. In the explanation of the high prices renewable electricity was only mentiond relative to Bermuda. It explained the price was high because Bermuda is so small it has no room for Solar and Wind Power to be constructed.
Spain, Germany, Denmark, and Britain have very high electricity rates and all are heavily invested in renewables. The article does not address this.
Google is high tech propaganda run by biased algorithms written by those with a political agenda and definitely not truth. Oddly Wiki is very good on subjects NOT POLITICAL. If the subject is political it is always with left wing bias and not to be trusted.
Misinformation is actually propaganda. It employs two methods. Commission and Omission.
1. Commission is just a plain lie.
2. Omission is not telling all the facts.
