This paper examines the teaching method of analysing human response with the case of the technologies of origin of fake news in the Internet space and the methods of its dissemination in the media in pandemic conditions by the example of the regional media activities in the Republic of Tatarstan, being the constituent entity of the Russian Federation which is one of the most saturated with media resources. Today interest in the problem of manipulative influence of media resources on their audience is growing more and more. It is the media field that is capable of shaping the basic news agenda, cutting off “inconvenient” information, and disseminating opinions supported by an “all-knowing expert”. Purposeful informational influence leads to the fact that a person easily perceives new ideas and considers suggested opinions as his/her own thoughts. The main purpose of manipulation is skilfully hidden; it should not be discovered even if the attempts at manipulation are exposed. In today's difficult situation, when a pandemic is taking place in the world, various sources of information are engaged in spreading false news that can become dangerous for part of society. Such information appears more and more often against the background of general panic; and people pay attention to it, because the main topic of such news is health and death.

Keywords : Manipulation; teaching the media resource; impact; audience; social networks.
