Update data/generate_fake_news.py

Browse files

Critical Issues in Original generate_fake_news.py:

Limited template sophistication (easily detectable patterns)
No duplicate detection or content validation
No quality control or believability scoring
No supporting content generation
No metadata or tracking
No category-based generation
No realistic variable generation

Observational Fix:

Added sophisticated multi-category template system
Added comprehensive duplicate detection and content validation
Added quality scoring and believability metrics
Added supporting content generation for realism
Added comprehensive metadata and tracking
Added category-based generation with balanced distribution
Added realistic variable generation with context awareness
Added content caching to prevent repetition
