There's also a fair bit of circular reasoning going on. Take the lab leak "conspiracy theory." Some organizations were dinged by the media raters (relied upon for this study) for being ahead of the curve on that, while organizations like CNN and the WHO weren't dinged despite being very wrong on an important topic. So people want to share articles that accurately point out that the lab leak hypothesis is plausible, which gets marked up as sharing information from organizations known for sharing disinformation (like the lab leak hypothesis), while people don't really care to share whatever CCP-apologetics the WHO is spouting today because it has no credibility, which gets marked up as not wanting to share True Information.
