I remember teaching library science students the subtle distinctions between the definitions of "misinformation" versus "disinformation". The key difference was that disinformation always had a malign intent behind it. I tend to agree with this post that the terms has been repeated and weaponised to the point of uselessness. The suggested alternative "false claim" seems to have some merit.
