Abstract

False news has received attention from both the general public and the scholarly world. Such false information
has the ability to affect public perception, giving nefarious groups the chance to influence the results of public events like
elections. Anyone can share fake news or facts about anyone or anything for their personal gain or to cause someone
trouble. Also, information varies depending on the part of the world it is shared on. Thus, in this paper, we have trained a
model to classify fake and true news by utilizing the 1876 news data from our collected dataset. We have preprocessed the
data to get clean and filtered texts by following the Natural Language Processing approaches. Our research conducts 3
popular Machine Learning (Stochastic gradient descent, Naïve Bayes, Logistic Regression,) and 2 Deep Learning (Long-
Short Term Memory, ASGD Weight-Dropped LSTM, or AWD-LSTM) algorithms. After we have found our best Naive
Bayes classifier with 56% accuracy and an F1-macro score of an average of 32%.
