Deepfakes, which are created using sophisticated artificial intelligence and machine learning, present a significant and growing danger to the credibility of authentic news reporting. This review examines the effect of these highly realistic, fabricated images, videos, and audio recordings on the integrity of news. It also investigates current methods for detecting deepfakes and considers various strategies for mitigation to safeguard the authenticity of journalism. The increasing accessibility of deepfake technology facilitates the spread of misinformation, which can erode public trust, influence public opinion, and harm the reputations of individuals and institutions. In response, a variety of detection techniques are being developed, including AI-driven analysis and digital watermarking. A comprehensive approach, combining technological solutions, public education, and strategic policy-making, is essential to address this evolving challenge and uphold the standards of trustworthy reporting.
