Political Bias and Impulsive Behavior Open Door to Misinformation Phil Muncaster UK / EMEA News Reporter , Infosecurity Magazine Americans are three-times as likely to follow strangers on Twitter if they share the same political views, according to new research which sheds more light on the spread of online misinformation and social media “echo chambers.” The peer-reviewed study from researchers at MIT and the UK’s Exeter University began by identifying 842 random Twitter users who displayed partisan bias towards the Republican or Democratic Party. Eight bot accounts were then created with varying degrees of partisanship to follow the group. The report concluded that, no matter what the strength of partisanship displayed by the bots and no matter whether Democrat or Republican, Twitter users were almost three-times more likely to follow back someone with the same political affiliation as their own.
