New media technologies are developing at a very high speed changing the news and entertainment consumption habits of people constantly. As media production and consumption converge in a new form of practice, a new actor, someone not only consuming the media products as a passive audience but also an active participant in the production process; “prosumer” has emerged. In this era, the conventional media companies promising to stick to basics of information sharing such as accuracy, privacy, accountability are now challenged by vast number of prosumers. However, “information disorder” is not only an end result of this vast network society and prosumers, but also it is facilitated by various interest groups ranging from governments to opposition movements.
