> Helping to address concerns about potential liberal bias among fact-checkers, we also examined untrustworthiness ratings from politically-balanced crowds of demographically representative (quota-sampled) American laypeople recruited via Lucid (15), rather than professional fact-checkers.
- pphysch 4y agoThe study pivots around popular perceptions of QAnon/Pizzagate as the archetype of "misinformation" and has zero mention of its political mirror-image, Russiagate. Both are false and ridiculous conspiracy theories aimed at defaming the opposing leadership. By omitting one of the two elephants (donkeys?) in the room, it has hard to take this study seriously. Very poor experimental design.
