Article is very broadly written, when the imminent threat might be manipulation of upcoming elections (France, Germany); "fake news" isn't even mentioned
- bmc7505 10y agoGoogle Translate does a surprisingly good job of translating that article. It's pretty funny how the publisher (Scientific American) added their own bias in translating the title and certain phrases, presumably to drive more traffic to their site.

- tannhaeuser 10y agoIndeed, the translation is scarily good (which is on topic enough I guess). Can't believe this was auto-translated. Where do you see clickbaity bias besides the title and lead (I haven't checked thoroughly)? Many phrases/stereotypes in German pop-science articles will only make sense in the context of the German media discourse/bubble (if they make sense at all).
