Fake News and Hate Speech: Language in Common

Computation and Language 2022-12-06 v1

Abstract

In this paper we raise the research question of whether fake news and hate speech spreaders share common patterns in language. We compute a novel index, the ingroup vs outgroup index, in three different datasets and we show that both phenomena share an "us vs them" narrative.
