False news has become a hot topic over the past decade and @sinanaral is a leading expert on the subject. Check out this week's @UTWthePodcast to hear him discuss his work on the evolving face of social media news #webscience

Untangling the Web Podcast@UTWthePodcast

People were 70% more likely to share a verified false news tweet than a verified true news tweet over a 10 year period. @sinanaral, who co-authored the study behind that stat, takes us through what that means for our society: https://bit.ly/3AMC0XE
