Flaw Jack? A study done at Oxford is flawed, because you Jack say so? Now that's funny. Also,the fact that you can't distinguish the difference between Russia and England is sad. And yes, telling.

I'll give you a hint. England ally, Russia foe. England represents a free society, Russia does not.

Contrary to the claim that conservatives are sharing the most fake news, the study proves nothing other than finding conservatives tend to share conservative media online.

...

The sweeping claim that Trump supporters circulate more fake news than "all other political audience groups combined" was based on analysis of three months of tweets.

...

The analysis does not include any reference to what websites are actually on the "junk news" list... The list was not derived from "across the political spectrum," but full of mainstream conservative news and commentary sites, with no mainstream sites from the left.

...

Just 6 out of 91 sources of the "junk news" list are left-wing websites, and none are easily recognizable.

The six left-wing websites include: BipartisanReport.com, CrooksAndLiars.com, DeepStateNation.com, OccupyDemocrats.com, ShareBlue.com, and DailyNewsBin.com, which no longer exists. The site became the Palmer Report, a liberal blog.

...

There are 70 right-wing websites, with varying degrees of views on the spectrum. Many are marginal, and some publish unverified stories, such as PuppetStringNews.com. Numerous sites on the "junk news" list are, however, mainstream conservative outlets that are widely read and shared.

The Drudge Report—a news site that receives more than 2 million unique visitors daily—is "junk news," according to Oxford. So are Breitbart and the Daily Caller, which are also among the top 100 visited media publications.

Also listed as "junk news" are popular conservative outlets Campus Reform, CNSNews.com, Fox News personality Sean Hannity's official website, Hot Air, NewsBusters, Red State, and the Federalist, which features mostly commentary.

I don't see Oxford disclaiming his publications.

I suspect the Brits have a different take on fake news than we
here in USA. Maybe the story is amusing to them instead of
offensive. Perhaps they'll sell a few more papers before using

Fake news published in the U.S. was overwhelmingly consumed and shared by right-wing social media users, a new study from the University of Oxford has revealed.

Research from Oxford's "computational propaganda project" investigated into the sources of "junk news" shared in the three months leading up to President Donald Trump's first State of the Union address last month.

On Facebook, they found that "extreme hard-right" conservatives shared more fake news stories than all other political groups combined, while on Twitter, Trump supporters consumed the most fake news.

Could it be that they are low IQ gullible people that can't reason for themselves?

Hmmm.

http://lolzonline-media-dd4suwdahre7.netdna-ssl.com/image/hmmm_1.jpeg]

All the fake news talking points posted here by the trolls is proof of that. They're easy to spot. Anything going on in the mainstream including the FBI, Intel agencies, justice department and judicial system is fake. Rappy says an Oxford study is fake news. Can you imagine?

And to them all I say...

Tick tock

We all know that you won't actually do that though, don't we? We all know the only test that any news story or study actually needs to hold water in your eyes is whether it falls in line with your ideology.

Trump supporters and extreme right 'share widest range of junk news'

A network of Donald Trump supporters shares the widest range of 'junk news' on Twitter, and a network of extreme far-right conservatives on Facebook, according to analysis by Oxford University.

First of all, he just offers an opinion based on a conversation he had, his interpretation of it anyway.

That ain't science rappy. The Oxford and the Yale studies are based on science.

Secondly, he then confirms the study results
by agreeing with it's conclusion. Only for different reasons.
Again based on his opinion.

Studies done by Oxford and Yale come to the same conclusion,
yet you chose to believe someone who talks to you from a youtube channel.
Can you say dummy?

If you understood science you would know he must disprove
Yale's and Oxfords studies results. Where's his study rappy?
Other than I spoke with someone on the phone. What a moron.

And yes, the oxford study has been thoroughly debunked. They, like you , have been shown to be ignorant of the topic of ' fake news' and simply wanted to make a name for themselves.

They failed.

I can read can you. And if you do read something do you have the cognitive skills to understand what you've read, and just as important, who wrote it.

I told you to post some proof. Perhaps a counter study done by a reputable university. Not a referral to a link. One where another reporter gives his opinion. An opinion not based on a scientific research study. One like that of Yale and Oxford. No, instead you refer me to an opinion piece done by an ultra conservative.

And are you even aware these are the same guys who first commissioned the steel dossier? They wanted to smear Trump so a different republican ( who they wanted ), would win the nomination.

I really need to stop responding to you. I know, if I ever respond to you in a quote again you win. If I don't, I do.

The study featured only 6 progressive sites out of 91. None of them are known by almost anybody. Conversely, over 70 of them were Conservative outlets, many of which are high profile and have been around for years. Sean Hannity's site is one of them, although there were no websites from prominent Progressive figureheads.

Well?

No rappy. I tend to believe or give a modicum of credit to institutions like the mainstream media, and time honored universities over guys who make videos in their basements.

You're a useful idiot for the establishment. I get that. I really do. But if you understood the issue, or even bothered to follow along w/ what was being discussed, you'd not show what a blatant ass you are. Well, I guess you would, being a troll and all.

No rappy, the difference between someone who follows mainstream media, believes in America's democratic and educational institutions, and someone who gets his information from guys making videos in their basement is, pay attention now...One is sane and the other is not. One is firmly rooted in reality and the other is not.

The difference between you and me rappy is that I am sane and firmly rooted in reality. Sadly, you are not.
