Right from the abstract: "Persuasive content in online news contains elements that aim to persuade its readers and may not necessarily include factual information. Since a news article only has some sentences that indicate persuasiveness, it would be quite challenging to differentiate news with or without the persuasive content." No, persuasion is not disinformation or something alike. While mileages vary, persuasion can be even seen as a necessary part of a democracy; thus, trying to censor it is ill-advised.
