    Dr. Wasim Ahmed Retweeted CNN

    So that's a combined total of at least 55% of 'fake' accounts on Twitter during the election. What implications for research? #NSMNSShttps://twitter.com/CNN/status/788427929537699840 …

        Not to mention, what are the implications for modern elections if twitter is a significant source of information for the masses?

        Where are authors's disclosures of COI, methodology & actual "study" which has NOT been peer reviewed? @brianstelter @CNN

        you can't just add percentages. if traffic for each was a 60% share, that wouldn't mean bots have a 120% share of the total, right?

        that asymmetrical, automated trolling = perception of breakdown of consensus reality; emboldens real hate; confuses, overwhelms
