We are continuing to develop Tornevall Networks Toolbox for Social Medias with a clear focus on fact-checking.
The idea is simple: to gather information from established fact-checking organizations such as Snopes, Källkritikbyrån, Motargument and others, and use that to create a clearer picture of what is actually accurate in what we see online.
Rather than pointing out individual posts, the goal is to improve the overall understanding of how information spreads. By following different sources over time, it becomes easier to see how topics change, grow, or shift direction.
This is especially relevant during election periods, when the amount of information increases and it becomes harder to separate facts from misleading claims.
By combining multiple sources, we want to make it easier to see the bigger picture without relying on any single actor.
This is still a work in progress, but the ambition is straightforward: to make it easier to understand the flow of information online.
If you have suggestions for fact-checkers we should include, feel free to reach out.
