2. False Connection (when headlines, visuals, or captions don't support the content)

3. Misleading Content (misleading use of information to frame an issue, group, or individual)

4. False Context (when genuine content is shared with false contextual information)

5. Imposter Content (when genuine sources are impersonated with false, made-up sources)

6. Manipulated Content (when genuine information or imagery is manipulated to deceive)

7. Fabricated Content (new content that is 100% false, designed to deceive and do harm)
