The speed of the Internet, the rapid development of mobile devices, the availability to all and the benefits of easy communication and connection, led to ease dissemination of news and information individuals on social media networks without censorship of the content provided through these sites. This poses a serious risk to the truthiness of online publishing. The deceptive information disseminated through social media sites spreads rapidly and causes negative effects in various areas. Twitter is one of the most popular social networking sites for getting the news and information, especially in the Arab world. There has been a great deal of research on the truthiness of Twitter publications in many languages, but research in Arabic blogs is still a fertile area and needs more work. In this paper, we present a general model of Truth Detection Steps on Arabic Tweets. We survey as well the latest Arabic research and surveys in truth detection.
