As a special dissemination content,fake news not only has a negative impact on the development of journalism,but also seriously disrupts social order.Therefore,studying fake news and its characteristics is an important task of journalism and communication.This study selects 104 fake news cases with the most typical and representative significance from 2008 to 2017 as research samples,and analyzes them through content analysis to get the main “clue sources” of fake news content and summarize the basics of fake news.feature.On this basis,this study uses the News Value theory as a theoretical framework to explore which “news value elements” are extracted from the content of fake news in the sample.At the same time,this paper classifies the falsehood of fake news by analyzing the inaccurate elements in the fake news text,and further points out the characteristics of different fake news.The study found that the clues were mainly got through four ways: “interviewing insiders”,“fictional fabrication”,“reposting foreign media” and “interviewing parties”.The main topic of choice is “social news”,the number of negative news is relatively larger,and the number of neutral news is small.The main form of fake news is “indirect image correlation and video indirect correlation”.The fake news content has a higher "newness" and "proximity",and the "event" is more significant than the "person".The “importance” is relatively low,and the “novelty” high false news sample is slightly more than low ones,which is not prominent.Judging from the falsification of news elements,the "news event process","the news event results" and "the cause of news events" are the three most serious factors of fraud.
