It’s All about the Algorithm 0

At Psychology Today Blogs, Russell Ramsay reports on a study documenting how and why “social” media is not a reliable source of information. He notes that the study focused on TikTok (studies to have to focus, after all), but that its findings extend to “social” media in general.

In that context, he reminds us that

I commend the entire piece to your attention.
