7. In doing so, we’ve combined powerful tools capable of sifting
through millions on tweets daily to spot false information early
and monitor its spread
Concretely, Anteviral automatically tracks, measures and aggregates both
articles and statements shared online to identify fake news. It then
pushes this information to partner organizations in the media for fact-
checking and monitors its spread and online footprint to help these
organizations and the general public focus on what matters.
