“…Although OSNs are particularly convenient for publishing and consuming content about breaking events, they have proven to be more susceptible to manipulation compared with more traditional media outlets. In particular, OSNs have often been used to spread and amplify incorrect, misleading, or false narratives to achieve certain public opinion goals (Bolsover & Howard, ; Lazer, Baum, & Benkler, ; Starbird, ; Schuchard, Crooks, Stefanidis, & Croitoru, ; Vosoughi, Roy, & Aral, ). Such manipulations can lead to fallacious changes in public opinion that could then propagate to and influence the policy‐making process.…”
