False Checking

1. Fraudulently claiming something as fact-checked to support an arguement when there is insufficient or contradictory evidence.

2. Citing potentially unreliable sources or sources with contradictory information to support a position, assuming that the audience will not thoroughly examine the references.

Politicians and journalists frequently employ deceptive tactics, such as gaslighting and false checking, in an attempt to manipulate public perception when presented with compelling evidence that challenges their assertions.
