      zeynep tufekci Retweeted Staci D Kramer

      I've seen this tweet a lot. It's not true. The source has no indications of credibility. There's no link. The claim is false. It's gone viral. Reminder to us that falling for misinformation doesn't just happen to alien creatures, or only on other side of the political spectrum.https://twitter.com/sdkstl/status/1045709750481158145 …

      warning: this viral tweet purporting to cite the WSJ is being shared by a lot of people who should know better. It’s a hoax repeated in a subsequent tweet. No one should RT or share anything from this account. #factcheck pic.twitter.com/TmCTMhZp9B

      It's up to 11K in retweets. It's false. The "WSJ:" is meant to signal credibility but there's no link. The claim is straight-up made-up as far as I can tell. There is no WSJ article. It's spreading, still, like wildfire. Misinformation isn't something that only happens to others.pic.twitter.com/86ELF2eOZD

          There is only so much he can do to point out a bad thing... Controling what ppl choose to cherry pick is a trick more suited to religious figures

          So who is Alan Covington? Someone should track him down and figure out what his deal is. Might lead to some interesting threads...
