In today's global media landscape, defending against information manipulation and promoting fair yet responsible media participation have become essential goals.

Using interdisciplinary research, it shows how audiences, media actors, and regulators need to adapt to combat deliberate distortion, propaganda, and disinformation. The findings indicate that media literacy, platform transparency, ethical journalism practices, regulatory safeguards, and international cooperation are crucial for countering manipulation and maintaining diversity and competitiveness in the global media landscape.
