从创造性程度的角度看，辟谣新闻论证可以区分为重述式论证和创造性论证。前者与强制性纠正效应相匹配，也就是说新闻报道使用一种正式强制方式，譬如：官方辟谣、专家辟谣、新闻发布会等。由此，辟谣新闻会表现出明显的线性单向度的传播学特征。而后者倡导匡正的新实践，通过想象力、洞察力、综合概括能力的运用以新的论据或理由、新的论证方式思考传言的本质，由此确认辟谣论证对人性塑造的意义，并强调辟谣论证的刻画与社会责任的互动关系。

In a creative sense, dispelling rumor news’ argumentation can be classified as restated or creative. The former is a possible mandatory corrective effect in journalism communication, because the dispelling rumor news uses some formal modes of coercion, such as official statement, expert dispelling rumor and press conference. Thus, they are obviously one-way linear communication. The latter advocates new correcting practice. The creative argumentation is based on rethinking about the nature of rumors through new arguments and reasons, including imagination, insight and generalization. It also confirms that dispelling rumor’s argument plays an active role in shaping human meaning, emphasizing interactive relationship between rumor dispelling and social responsibility.
