Abstract : Fake news has become the order of the day due to rapid growth in number of online news sources, and social
media platforms. Unrestrained distribution of false reports threatens democratic processes, public discussions as well as the
possibility of a stable society. Machine learning algorithms for fake news detection are comprehensively studied in this
research paper. This entails sourcing for fake and real articles then carrying out extensive pre-processing as well as feature
extraction. We also explore different machine learning models such as logistic regression, support vector machines, random
forests and neural networks to perform precise classification of news articles. The performance of these models is measured
using evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score. By carrying out systematic experimentation and
analysis in this work, we prove that our proposed methods have high accuracy rates in terms of identifying fake news
articles. Hence, there is an effort to build scalable solutions that can withstand misinformation propagation and promote
digital media literacy.
