#DonaldTrump held a rally in Detroit, but not for the #AutoWorkers #Strike: it was another sham.

This is what I mean when I say the #MainstreamMedia loves him: they can take what should be a night and day comparison, make things look even, and pass off the story like a balanced situation, because the fate of the #US is just #RealityTV to the #Corporate #News, and #Trump is their star.

Italia, paese di...creduloni!
Perché gli italiani sono così boccaloni?

Difficile un'unica risposta ma per quello che posso osservare nella mia cerchia familiare, la cosa che accade spesso è che si accetta senza riserve la notizia appena letta senza porsi dei dubbi, delle domande e, soprattutto, non si approfondisce. Non si va mai a fondo.

Peccato, la curiosità non è più di moda, oppure è troppo faticosa.

- Die sollen den Ausländern an den Grenzen 5€ in die Hand drücken & die nach Hause schicken.

Bombay High Court Asks Why Fact Checking Unit Is Required If It Cannot Compel Removal Of Fake News

The Bombay High Court on Tuesday wondered why the amendment to Information Technology Rules, 2021 providing for a government Fact Check Unit (FCU) is required when the FCU cannot compel social media platforms to take down content flagged as false, fake, or misleading.

X is obliged under the new law to comply with the rules or face a ban across the EU.

We all make mistakes in life. One mistake I made was in voting for the man on the right in this picture, Dimitri Lascaris. He was running for leader of the Green Party of Canada at the time and was, I thought, an exciting eco-socialist option. He has always been anti-NATO and anti-USA hegemony, and that's fine. But now he has turned into a mouthpiece for Russian propaganda in Canada. He repeats the same words as Putin. Here he is, last week, speaking to the RT newschannel from Athens, Greece on the 'persecution' of pro-Russia journalists. I wonder how much he gets paid for towing Putin's line. Screw you Dimitri. I'm sorry I shook your hand.

It intentionally uses #sexism and #misogyny to mislead and misframe what the story is ACTUALLY about.

It’s the woman, her husband, and infant twins, and the luggage includes strollers and carseats. They still packed suitcases beyond their allotment, but they were flying from Australia to the US and had a ton of stuff to take care of their kids.

In an amusing twist of #SelectionBias, the death rates were 11% lower than even pre #COVID normal life expectancy for vaccinated people. Probably because people who take #vaccines tend to be more informed about #health #risk.

The #death rate for unvaccinated people was 93% higher than the pre-COVID ones. The risk profile of people who don't have the skills to "do their own #research" is frankly #insane.

@ArrestJK Unsurprisingly Luxon dismissed this report. I am surprised Luxon didn’t call it #FakeNews

@hkrn sounds like poorly made #FakeNews...

Maybe @Free_Press or @enno can confirm this to be the case?

"Regulators invited public comment on whether the US broadcast license for #Fox Corp.’s TV station in Philadelphia should be renewed after a grassroots organization asked that it be denied, saying Fox knowingly broadcast false news about the 2020 #election."

#ElectionDenial is not the only thing that Fox has peddled incessantly: They also deal in #ClimateDenial, CovidDenial, and #FakeNews in general.

Nach Prigoschin-Absturz: Falsche Inhalte stiften Verwirrung

Im Zusammenhang mit dem abgestürzten Wagner-Privatjet kursieren falsche Inhalte im Netz. Ein millionenfach geschautes Video zeigt nicht den Absturz des Prigoschin-Flugzeuges, sondern eines Flugzeugs der russischen Luftwaffe. Von C. Reveland

Yes, this!
Both side do not have equal weight in many issues. Sometimes one side is just wrong.
I would like more facts in our news and less 'commentary' too.
Thanks to reporters and writers who are doing a good job.

A 3 frame meme featuring a man speaking to someone. It looke like a newsroom in the background.
Frame 1, "If someone says it's raining and another person says it's dry,"
Frame 2. "It's not your job to quote them 'both'. Your job is to look out the f**iking window
Frame 3, "And find out which is true."

Can crowds help identify #misinformation at scale? YES! In this #review we overview a range of scientific studies of using the "wisdom of crowds" to help social media platforms meet the misinformation challenge. We show that seemingly contradictory findings in the literature about crowd performance can be explained simply by different papers using analytic approaches. When analyzed in the same wall, all evidence suggests that crowd ratings are highly correlated with expert ratings. We discuss the various limits and challenges of crowdsourced news evaluation, but conclude that crowd ratings are one important part of the anti-misinformation toolkit
Crowd ratings=useful signals!

Connaître la notion d'astroturfing est essentiel pour faire preuve de vigilance en ligne, surtout sur les réseaux sociaux. Je ne comprends pas comment cette notion n'est pas déjà au cœur du débat public concernant la lutte contre la désinformation sur Internet.

Je cite Wikipédia :
"L'astroturfing (aussi appelé similitantisme, contrefaçon de mouvement d’opinion ou désinformation populaire planifiée, et parfois désinformation populaire orchestrée) consiste en l'utilisation de techniques de propagande manuelles ou algorithmiques à des fins publicitaires, politiques ou de relations publiques, qui ont pour but de donner une fausse impression d'un comportement spontané ou d'une opinion populaire sur Internet."

C'est ce qui se passe tout le temps sur Twitter et Facebook, mais la technique date d'avant l'invention d'Internet et peut aussi passer par l'envoi orchestré de courriers (et désormais de mails) à des institutions, médias, etc.

La Manif pour tous y a abondamment recouru en son temps. Le scandale Facebook-Cambridge Analytica a montré que le vote en faveur du Brexit au Royaume-Uni a été fortement encouragé par ce type de technique. L'extrême droite joue dessus à fond. Ça ne m'étonnerait pas que les experts en import-export de paniques morales (contre les "wokes", contre les personnes trans...) soient également familiers de la notion.

La bonne nouvelle, c'est que, non, tout le monde ne devient pas subitement facho. Mais il reste vital d'informer les gens sur ces techniques et d'exiger des institutions qu'elles luttent efficacement contre : nos démocraties en dépendent.

You do amazing 👏 work.
You should be the benchmark for "keeping up."

If only 20-30% of journalists were so devoted here in the #Fediverse and not on billionaire sites, this could change #democracies around the globe 🌎 .
The majority doesn't enjoy being lied to with #FakeNews.

#CitizensUnitedVsFEC was the #CoronaVirus of #democracy. It must be eradicated.

@SheDrivesMobility Punkt 1 und 3 sind nicht fair Katja! Viele aus der #EAuto bubble sind aktiv unterwegs gegen jede Art von #Fakenews. Insbesondere wenn es gegen das Klima geht. Meine Timeline sollte da ein gutes Beispiel sein.

Und dass wir aktiv #Verkehrswende und #Autokorrektur betreiben ist gerade bei mir nicht zu leugnen. Ein Auto weniger, es wird Bahn gefahren, das Lastenrad wird gerade gekauft. U.a. wegen deiner Initiative!

🚨New paper in press @ JEPG🚨
Http://psyarxiv.com/8fkpy
Remember the paper showing that it’s specifically *low-conscientious* #conservatives who share fake news? It got lots of coverage. BUT it seems like that claim isn't actually true - in a new paper we fail to replicate it in 5(!) times and also show that even the original data don't support the claim (because they look at overall sharing, not specifically at sharing of false claims). Bottom line: conservatives are more likely to share #misinformation, regardless of their level of #conscientiousness. Check out the ungated paper: "Conscientiousness does not moderate the association between political ideology and susceptibility to fake news sharing" at http://psyarxiv.com/8fkpy

5. #Artenschutz ist Grundvoraussetzung für unser Leben, Artenschutz und Landwirtschaft schließen einander nicht aus

6. Kritische Oppositionsarbeit muß von konstruktiven Vorschlägen begleitet werden. Die Eingliederung reißerischer und falscher Medienberichte in die Argumentation verhindern sachlichen Diskurs und gefährden die #Demokratie

7. Emotionale Argumentation, #Fakenews und „Technologieoffenheit“ zulasten konkreter Richtungsweisung belasten Wirtschaft und irritieren Konsumenten

So all this business about Nigel Farage screaming blue murder because he's been politically victimised by Evil Woke Lefties at his bank?

The truth is a lot more prosaic:

Farage banks at Coutts, which is a private bank and has strict "minimum account balance" policies. It seems that Farage simply fell below that threshold, so they asked him to move his accounts to their normal persons bank: Natwest.

That's it. No victimisation, no politicisation. Just Farage is down to his last couple of million or something.

I would like to share a very interesting research article about #misinformation. Of course, such research and discussions need to be elaborated and diversified for different societies/cultures. Finding the right information in the media is really hard work, so I don't think we should take this #fakenews thing superficially. According to the researchers, #factcheck isn't enough to fix the toxic social environment plagued by misinformation and disinformation...

A test of five #AI-image detection tools finds they often struggle with altered and low quality images and sometimes even fail when an image is obviously fake.
