It's pretty interesting to see how fake news spreads and how people are able to buy into it. The implications for the future are scary.

Great read. I've heard a lot about "fake news" but I was always confused as to how it was disseminated so fast and easily. This article explains it well. I hope we can crack down on fake news because it has been very detrimental to our society.

It is interesting that these bots are able to detect the users with a huge following, leading an even faster spread of fake news. I have always relied on the bigger outlets for the latest and/or breaking news.
