Suspect our finding - that news sources rated trustworthy generated 40+ times as much web traffic across 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇫🇷🇩🇪 from 2017-2021 as those rated untrustworthy - will get about as much elite attention as Jennifer Allen et al finding that 'fake news' is ~0.15% of Americans' media diet.

How did the coronavirus pandemic affect people’s online news consumption?
Sacha Altay has led work out now in Journal of Quantitative Description: Digital Media, examining web traffic data and Facebook engagement in 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇫🇷🇩🇪 2017-2021.
We find people mainly turned to reliable news outlets journalqd.org/article/view/3… 1/6

'While some […] no doubt engaged more with problematic information during the pandemic, we find no evidence of a structural shift in the direction of untrustworthy sources.'
Great new work by Sacha Altay, Rasmus Kleis Nielsen & Richard Fletcher!
