Canard : 허위보도, 유언비어

 

1)
this is a false piece of information
a hoax 
a report or a rumer that somebody spread that is intended to trick people to give people a false impression
a false news which is I think quite a hot topic nowadays 

a false story
something that's deliberately misleading
something that is designed to trick people

this word is particularly used for journalism and publishing 
it's a false report, a hoax

usually it's something negative that says that spread a rumor or suggests that somebody has done something bad
many of social media platforms are cracking down on canards, on false news
a canard, effectively just a false story
an unfounded rumor

a groundless rumor

it's something that people belive, it's a fumer that goes around

particularly canard is malicious, it's something that has the intention of defaming somebody
it's an invention
it's a misrepresentation
some storty that somebody's invented 

 

2)

in social media, threre are various different groups that try to spread various different canards to support their point of views or their opinion
the report about this conspiracy theory are in fact a canard
the widespread canard that all politicians are dishonest
I think social media are the perfect vehicle for canards because somebody can tweet or post on YouTube or post on Facebook more or less anything they want
there is this canard going around that the Premier has a new girlfriend and is about to leave his wife
