title = "Polarization and Misinformation in Hong Kong",
abstract = "This chapter finds that the most common type of misinformation in Hong Kong is the misinterpretation of evidence. This is followed by incomplete information, while complete fabrication and manipulation were not as prominent. Distrust toward authorities and political polarization in the city may fuel the spread of misinformation on digital platforms. This chapter also highlights the difficulties encountered by fact-checking experts and emphasizes the need for stronger advocacy initiatives to promote critical analysis of information among the public.",
