STEVE'S TIKTOK

I’ve been sick for the past few months. Which is why there has been an episode of a Scamapalooza in a little while.

Instead, I’ve been spending a lot of time in bed feeling sorry for myself while trawling tiktok.

Among the craft videos, slime reviews and video game analysis, I came across a video of a young academic making iced coffee while explaining his research into why some people detect misinformation on social media while others let it slide.

Is it an education issue? A psychological block? Or do people just lack the proper motivation?

On this episode of Scamapalooza, I talk to Steven Rathje about his research into fake news, his one point one million followers, and how to fix the problem of truth on social media.

He also gives me genuinely useful ideas on the types of TikTok content my followers would want to see.
