Algorithmically curated lies: How search engines handle misinformation about U.S. biolabs in Ukraine
The growing volume of online content prompts the need for adopting algorithmic systems for curating information. These systems range from web search engines to recommender systems and are integral for helping users stay informed about important societal developments. However, the algorithmic information curation systems (AICSs) are known to be subject to different forms of malperformance which make them vulnerable to possible manipulation, especi…
Search engines in polarized media environment: Auditing political information curation on Google and Bing prior to 2024 US elections
Search engines (SEs) influence how individuals are informed about election-related developments and perceive the environment in which elections take place. It has particular implications for (perceived) polarization, especially if SEs’ curation leads to a skewed treatment of information sources; however, until now, it is unclear how different SE factors may affect the emergence of such a partisan gap. To address this shortcoming, we audit the two…
In generative AI we trust: Can Chatbots Effectively Verify Political Information
This article presents a comparative analysis of the potential of two large language model (LLM)-based chatbots—ChatGPT and Bing Chat (recently rebranded to Microsoft Copilot)—to detect veracity of political information. We use AI auditing methodology to investigate how chatbots evaluate true, false, and borderline statements on five topics: COVID-19, Russian aggression against Ukraine, the Holocaust, climate change, and LGBTQ + -related debates. …
Kontrpropaganda today: The roots of RT’s defensive practices and countering ethic
This article argues that the institutional practices and journalistic ethics on RT, formerly Russia Today, have been influenced by the Soviet kontrpropaganda tradition, a defence mechanism against anti-communist narratives. RT’s post-Soviet institutional structure has enabled the continuation of inherently ‘defensive’ practices in a way that they form a ‘countering’ ethic on the network. While kontrpropaganda informs the journalistic culture of R…
Theorising resilience: Russia’s reaction to US and EU sanctions
This article analyses responses in the Russian media to the economic sanctions imposed in the wake of the annexation of Crimea. We look at the near-Kremlin figure Dmitry Kiselyov, explaining how elite actors employ persuasive tools in order to fashion and promote collective resilience not only as a value, but also as part of a quest for a post-Soviet identity. We show how resilience in the face of economic hardship is built and sustained, ensurin…
