&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The study shows that false news is 70 per cent more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Three researchers associated with Massachusetts Institute of Technology &amp;mdash; Soroush Vasoughi and Deb Roy of the Media Lab, and Sinan Aral of Sloan School of Management &amp;mdash; came together to study how true and false news spread in social media. The interest, the authors say, was born after two of the researchers &amp;ldquo;experienced the impact of the spread of rumours&amp;rdquo; immediately after the bomb explosions that killed three people at the Boston Marathon in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What does the research show?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In short, false news travels faster, wider, and more deeply compared to true news on social media. Also, the flow of false news is not enhanced by automated fake profiles called bots. In fact, people push false news more. The study shows that false news is 70% more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Is false news same as fake news?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The authors made a conscious choice to eschew the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo;, using &amp;ldquo;true&amp;rdquo; or &amp;ldquo;false&amp;rdquo; news instead. &amp;ldquo;Although the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo; implies a willful distortion of the truth, we do not make any claims about the intent of the purveyors of the information,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in their research paper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;So, what kind of news is studied?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The research takes into account nearly 1,26,000 &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo;, which were tweeted by nearly three million people over 4.5 million times between 2006 and 2017. All these &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo; that the research focused on were verified as true or false by six independent fact-checking websites.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What qualifies as news in the study?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We define news as any story&amp;hellip; with an assertion in it and a rumour as the social phenomena of a news story,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in the study. This means that any assertion made that was verified as true or false by the six fact-checking sites was considered as &amp;ldquo;news&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;The study shows that false news is 70 per cent more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Three researchers associated with Massachusetts Institute of Technology &amp;mdash; Soroush Vasoughi and Deb Roy of the Media Lab, and Sinan Aral of Sloan School of Management &amp;mdash; came together to study how true and false news spread in social media. The interest, the authors say, was born after two of the researchers &amp;ldquo;experienced the impact of the spread of rumours&amp;rdquo; immediately after the bomb explosions that killed three people at the Boston Marathon in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What does the research show?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In short, false news travels faster, wider, and more deeply compared to true news on social media. Also, the flow of false news is not enhanced by automated fake profiles called bots. In fact, people push false news more. The study shows that false news is 70% more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Is false news same as fake news?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The authors made a conscious choice to eschew the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo;, using &amp;ldquo;true&amp;rdquo; or &amp;ldquo;false&amp;rdquo; news instead. &amp;ldquo;Although the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo; implies a willful distortion of the truth, we do not make any claims about the intent of the purveyors of the information,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in their research paper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;So, what kind of news is studied?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The research takes into account nearly 1,26,000 &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo;, which were tweeted by nearly three million people over 4.5 million times between 2006 and 2017. All these &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo; that the research focused on were verified as true or false by six independent fact-checking websites.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What qualifies as news in the study?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We define news as any story&amp;hellip; with an assertion in it and a rumour as the social phenomena of a news story,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in the study. This means that any assertion made that was verified as true or false by the six fact-checking sites was considered as &amp;ldquo;news&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The study shows that false news is 70 per cent more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Three researchers associated with Massachusetts Institute of Technology &amp;mdash; Soroush Vasoughi and Deb Roy of the Media Lab, and Sinan Aral of Sloan School of Management &amp;mdash; came together to study how true and false news spread in social media. The interest, the authors say, was born after two of the researchers &amp;ldquo;experienced the impact of the spread of rumours&amp;rdquo; immediately after the bomb explosions that killed three people at the Boston Marathon in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What does the research show?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In short, false news travels faster, wider, and more deeply compared to true news on social media. Also, the flow of false news is not enhanced by automated fake profiles called bots. In fact, people push false news more. The study shows that false news is 70% more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Is false news same as fake news?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The authors made a conscious choice to eschew the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo;, using &amp;ldquo;true&amp;rdquo; or &amp;ldquo;false&amp;rdquo; news instead. &amp;ldquo;Although the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo; implies a willful distortion of the truth, we do not make any claims about the intent of the purveyors of the information,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in their research paper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;So, what kind of news is studied?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The research takes into account nearly 1,26,000 &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo;, which were tweeted by nearly three million people over 4.5 million times between 2006 and 2017. All these &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo; that the research focused on were verified as true or false by six independent fact-checking websites.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What qualifies as news in the study?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We define news as any story&amp;hellip; with an assertion in it and a rumour as the social phenomena of a news story,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in the study. This means that any assertion made that was verified as true or false by the six fact-checking sites was considered as &amp;ldquo;news&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;The study shows that false news is 70 per cent more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Three researchers associated with Massachusetts Institute of Technology &amp;mdash; Soroush Vasoughi and Deb Roy of the Media Lab, and Sinan Aral of Sloan School of Management &amp;mdash; came together to study how true and false news spread in social media. The interest, the authors say, was born after two of the researchers &amp;ldquo;experienced the impact of the spread of rumours&amp;rdquo; immediately after the bomb explosions that killed three people at the Boston Marathon in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What does the research show?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In short, false news travels faster, wider, and more deeply compared to true news on social media. Also, the flow of false news is not enhanced by automated fake profiles called bots. In fact, people push false news more. The study shows that false news is 70% more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Is false news same as fake news?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The authors made a conscious choice to eschew the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo;, using &amp;ldquo;true&amp;rdquo; or &amp;ldquo;false&amp;rdquo; news instead. &amp;ldquo;Although the term &amp;ldquo;fake news&amp;rdquo; implies a willful distortion of the truth, we do not make any claims about the intent of the purveyors of the information,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in their research paper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;So, what kind of news is studied?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The research takes into account nearly 1,26,000 &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo;, which were tweeted by nearly three million people over 4.5 million times between 2006 and 2017. All these &amp;ldquo;stories&amp;rdquo; that the research focused on were verified as true or false by six independent fact-checking websites.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;What qualifies as news in the study?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We define news as any story&amp;hellip; with an assertion in it and a rumour as the social phenomena of a news story,&amp;rdquo; the authors say in the study. This means that any assertion made that was verified as true or false by the six fact-checking sites was considered as &amp;ldquo;news&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>The study shows that false news is 70 per cent more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.<br />
</em><br />
Three researchers associated with Massachusetts Institute of Technology &mdash; Soroush Vasoughi and Deb Roy of the Media Lab, and Sinan Aral of Sloan School of Management &mdash; came together to study how true and false news spread in social media. The interest, the authors say, was born after two of the researchers &ldquo;experienced the impact of the spread of rumours&rdquo; immediately after the bomb explosions that killed three people at the Boston Marathon in 2013.<br />
<br />
<em>What does the research show?<br />
</em><br />
In short, false news travels faster, wider, and more deeply compared to true news on social media. Also, the flow of false news is not enhanced by automated fake profiles called bots. In fact, people push false news more. The study shows that false news is 70% more likely to be retweeted compared to true news.<br />
<br />
<em>Is false news same as fake news?<br />
</em><br />
The authors made a conscious choice to eschew the term &ldquo;fake news&rdquo;, using &ldquo;true&rdquo; or &ldquo;false&rdquo; news instead. &ldquo;Although the term &ldquo;fake news&rdquo; implies a willful distortion of the truth, we do not make any claims about the intent of the purveyors of the information,&rdquo; the authors say in their research paper.<br />
<br />
<em>So, what kind of news is studied?<br />
</em><br />
The research takes into account nearly 1,26,000 &ldquo;stories&rdquo;, which were tweeted by nearly three million people over 4.5 million times between 2006 and 2017. All these &ldquo;stories&rdquo; that the research focused on were verified as true or false by six independent fact-checking websites.<br />
<br />
<em>What qualifies as news in the study?<br />
</em><br />
&ldquo;We define news as any story&hellip; with an assertion in it and a rumour as the social phenomena of a news story,&rdquo; the authors say in the study. This means that any assertion made that was verified as true or false by the six fact-checking sites was considered as &ldquo;news&rdquo;.<br />

Paper Clip: True facts on how false news spreads -Krishn Kaushik

-The Indian Express The study shows that false news is 70 per cent more likely to be retweeted compared to true news. Three researchers associated with Massachusetts Institute of Technology — Soroush Vasoughi and Deb Roy of the Media Lab, and Sinan Aral of Sloan School of Management — came together to study how true and false news spread in social media. The interest, the authors say, was born after two of the researchers “experienced the impact of the spread of rumours” immediately after the bomb explosions that killed three people at the Boston Marathon in 2013. What does the research show? In short, false news travels faster, wider, and more deeply compared to true news on social media. Also, the flow of false news is not enhanced by automated fake profiles called bots. In fact, people push false news more. The study shows that false news is 70% more likely to be retweeted compared to true news. Is false news same as fake news? The authors made a conscious choice to eschew the term “fake news”, using “true” or “false” news instead. “Although the term “fake news” implies a willful distortion of the truth, we do not make any claims about the intent of the purveyors of the information,” the authors say in their research paper. So, what kind of news is studied? The research takes into account nearly 1,26,000 “stories”, which were tweeted by nearly three million people over 4.5 million times between 2006 and 2017. All these “stories” that the research focused on were verified as true or false by six independent fact-checking websites. What qualifies as news in the study? “We define news as any story… with an assertion in it and a rumour as the social phenomena of a news story,” the authors say in the study. This means that any assertion made that was verified as true or false by the six fact-checking sites was considered as “news”. Please click here to read more.
