Comunicarea politică în era post-adevărului: mass-media, emoții și manipularea opiniei publice [Articol]

Abstract

In the post-truth era, mass media plays a crucial role in shaping public opinion through the use of emotions and manipulative techniques in political communication. This paper analyzes how political rhetoric and media practices work together to undermine objective facts and promote subjective beliefs, thereby influencing the public’s perception of reality. The aim of the study is to highlight the dynamics between mass media, emotions, and manipulation strategies in the digital age, as well as to explore the impact of these phenomena on the quality of democratic debate.
