The well-informed citizen in a society is a predisposition for the empowerment of democratic government, respectively democratic society where the rule of law, freedom of media, and expression are an outcome. This study tries to analyze the relationship between politically active/ inactive citizens and their susceptibility to disinformation, by age group. The methodology used is qualitative and quantitative. The theoretical overview is supplemented by an analysis of the existing data at the state level that represents the citizens’ trust in the country’s institutions and their trust in the media. Furthermore, as a quantitative method, the questionnaire tries to rank citizens’ activity/interest in politics by age group and see how susceptible these age groups are to disinformation. The study aims to highlight that the most productive age group of citizens (31 – 45) are indifferent to politics and to reflect on the consequences that a society striving for democratization, such as North Macedonia, might have. Furthermore, the study recommends that media education be extended to different age groups of society, and media education should adjust to the characteristics of one society and reflect on the sense of national identity that, above all, impacts the success of media education in one country.
