refer  to  the  news  creators,  but  also  to  those  who 
spread  it.  Therefore,  the  public  must  be  careful  in 
publishing any information they receive. 
4.2  Suggestions 
As  a  research  recommendation,  an  affirmation  is 
needed  in  the  form  of  a  strict  Press  Law  on  press 
companies  disseminating  hoax  news  to  the  public. 
This is needed so that the media can directly deal with 
hoax news that is born and continues to emerge even 
though  it  is  managed  unprofessionally.  In  addition, 
the  criminal  act  of  spreading  hoax  news  must  be 
categorized  as  an  extraordinary  crime  because  the 
impact extends to the public and has the potential to 
cause  other  criminal  acts.  This  happens  if  the 
recipient  of  fake  news  acts  by  committing  a  new 
criminal act in response to the hoax he has consumed.
