misrepresenters
Those who falsify
Misrepresenters are people who give false or misleading accounts of something.
The word carries a sense of deliberate distortion rather than innocent error: The report exposed the executives as misrepresenters of their company's financial health.
A misrepresenter might twist facts, omit crucial details, or present things in a deceptively favorable light.
