A rumor or rumour (see spelling differences) is "a tall tale of explanations of events circulating from person to person and pertaining to an object, event, or issue in public concern". However, a review of the research on rumor conducted by Pendleton in 1998 found that research across sociology, psychology, and communication studies had widely varying definitions of rumor.
In the social sciences, a rumor involves some kind of a statement whose veracity is not quickly or ever confirmed. In addition, some scholars have identified rumor as a subset of propaganda.
Rumors are also often discussed with regard to "misinformation" and "disinformation" (the former often seen as simply false and the latter seen as deliberately false, though usually from a government source given to the media or a foreign government). Rumors thus have often been viewed as particular forms of other communication concepts.
French and German social science research on rumor locates the modern scholarly definition of it to the pioneering work of the German William Stern in 1902. Stern experimented on rumor involving a "chain of subjects" who passed a story from "mouth to ear" without the right to repeat or explain it. He found that the story was shortened and changed by the time it reached the end of the chain. His student was another pioneer in the field, Gordon Allport.

Neymar Jr. does NOT deny PSG transfer rumours
The phone lies on the floor
I've just hung up and the story's over
As I lie down I wonder
If things will ever be the same
A faint light shines through the shutters
And dust glitters in the haze
I close my eyes and I remember
How lonely you seemed to be in those days
Can you trust anyone
When suspicion is all around your mind
Spreading inside
I can feel it in your mind
Thoughts can be worse than words
When they're ruled by doubts
Can you trust anyone
When suspicion is all around your mind
Some day you may understand
There's nothing worse than treacheries
Commited by the ones you like
Fueled by gossips and believed lies
