There were six states where Donald Trump’s margin of victory was less than 2% –Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Ifthere were any real-world consequences to fake news, that’s where they would appear – where public opinion was evenly split right up to election day. 有6个州,唐纳德·特朗普的胜利的差距少于2%——弗罗里达州、密西根州、明尼苏达州、新罕布什尔州、宾夕法尼亚州和威斯康州。如果有现实世界的假新闻,那么就会这些州出现——在那里公众舆论是平分到选举日。 US voters shared large volumes of polarizing political news and information in the form of links to content from Russian, WikiLeaks and junk news sources.
