Proposta de cartilha informativa sobre aviação civil decorrente de informações midiáticas superficiais ou equivocadas

Abstract

The means of communication advancement and its accessibility to the majority of the population made it possible to reach more information and share it quickly and practically. Much of news shared, however, may be superficial in terms of the subject matter or even misleading, leading to the spread of fake news and thus circulating disinformation to part of the population. Considering this reality, also present in the context of aviation, the objective of the study is to propose an informative booklet model to minimize the propagation of superficial or mistaken media information in civil aviation. To achieve this objective, a qualitative approach was used as a methodology, of a basic nature and descriptive objectives, with the use of bibliographic, documental and case study procedures. With the study, it was found that the technological advancement caused by information and communication technologies (ICTs) resulted, over the years, in Information Society, in the increase in the volume and speed of information, at the same time it leaded, on the other hand, to the search for frantic sale of materials and the spread of fake news, even affecting aviation. To verify the presence of fake news in this sector, news from the area between 2012 and 2022 were researched, selecting four of them, which became a case study. The result of the study points to the trend of fake news, which disseminated misconceptions and untruths about the subjects brought up, both in the title and in the content of the news article. Thus, based on the case studies, an informative booklet model was proposed, aimed at what is reported about aviation, in order to demonstrate the disinformation consequences for the sector, at the same time that it clarifies ways to arrive at reality of facts, especially by checking data from reliable sources, such as Brazilian Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC), with the possibility of reducing the sharing of erroneous news. The purpose of the booklet is to point out subsidies so that specialists in the field can suggest improved models that serve as a basis for future adoption, even by the Regulatory Agency.
