"Often on the frames of communication, rather than constructive stories, which are a glue of social ties and the cultural fabric, destructive and provocative stories are produced, which wear down and break the fragile threads of coexistence. By putting together unverified information, repeating banal and falsely persuasive, striking with proclamations of hatred, human history is not woven, but the man of dignity is undressed ". The Pope wrote it in the Message for the World Communications Day.
Bergoglio also makes an appeal to the media: Telling the truth and the "ignored heroism of everyday life" to mend the "many lacerations of today", "in an era in which falsification is increasingly sophisticated, reaching exponential levels ( the deepfake), we need wisdom to welcome and create beautiful, true and good stories. We need courage to reject the false and wicked ones ".
