It’s like Snopes for Twitter, from Columbia U’s journalism school.
Emergent presents a list of rumors circulating online and the current best estimate of their veracity.
You can view a list of rumors being tracked on the homepage, along with their current claim state (True, False, Unverified). Click on a story to visit a page that visualizes the sources reporting the rumor, and a breakdown of social shares per source. You can also click on individual articles on the story page to see specific revision and social share data about that article.
