\"\"<\/a>The fight against fake news is fought by fact-checking agencies, the purpose of which is to verify information and identify false messages. Due to the high time-consuming nature of the manual content monitoring process, it is not always sufficient to meet the needs resulting from the amount of content generated by Internet users or bots.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The SocialScan tool, developed by the OpenFact<\/a> project, is used to scan social networking services (such as Twitter) based on user interactions.
