Dissecting chirping patterns of invasive Tweeter flocks in the German Twitter forest
Twitter as a platform is used for news dissemination, with high volumes of campaigning and populism. This situation coincides with the growth of audiences who embrace social media as their primary news source. In general, effects like the deterioration of political education, misinformation, or ideological segregation then arguably represent a tremendous risk for democratic societies.
We analyze a comprehensive data set of the German-speaking Twitter community – a concise, well-defined Twitter population – to understand the extent and form of consumption of controversial news.
Our results affirm a high interest of German Twitter users in daily news and corresponding discussions. In-depth studies on the behavior, including tweeting- and grouping patterns, revealed the emergence of a new, more self-assured form of echo chambers.
