Dr M: We will only act against fake news that disturbs public order

PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says the government will not restrict or take action against any inaccurate news reports, as long as they do not disturb public order.

He said the anti-fake news law would be given a new and clear definition, so that the public and local media practitioners would have a clear understanding of what constituted 'fake news'.
