In their @uwcip rapid research report, Caulfield and Starbird also examined Twitter/X discourse around the Lahaina fires on Maui. They write: "Both during the fires themselves and in the aftermath, X discourse has leaned into conspiracism, with much of the discourse centering around theories the fires may have been deliberate." [3/3]

Caulfield and Starbird write: “Given past research about some of the failings of YouTube search and recommendations, the strong performance of the search engine during an unfolding event was a welcome surprise, and adds to recent research showing that YouTube’s algorithms do not currently seem to be a driver of new viewers to extremist or alternative media content.” [2/3]

"As researchers and journalists and people that care about transparency and understanding what's going on, it's much harder today to understand what's going on on social media than it was three years ago," @uwcip director @katestarbird said in a recent Public Health Connects conversation with WA Secretary of Health Umair Shah about Starbird's research into how rumors, mis- and disinformation spread online.

In a recently published Issues in Science and Technology article, @uwcip co-founders Emma Spiro and @katestarbird explore how decades-old research about how and why people share rumors is even more relevant today in a world with social media.
Spiro and Starbird write: "The study of rumors, which surged around World War II, is still very relevant."

From the article co-authored by Spiro and Starbird: "Certainly, communication has changed dramatically since party-line telephone calls and black-and-white television, but scholarship from that era holds critical insights that are essential to the digital era. The study of rumors, which surged around World War II, is still very relevant."

“The first rule of a good online community user interface is to 'help the helpers.′ This is the opposite of that,” @uwcip research scientist @mikecaulfield said in an interview with the Associated Press. “It takes a community of people who want to help boost good information, and robs them of the tools to make fast, accurate decisions.”
