News media behaviour in Twitter during a major political event: Study of the Twitter accounts of the main Spanish news media before the 10N General Elections
Abstract
Twitter is considered one of the most relevant social platforms for political discussion, as well as one of the most visible scenarios for mass media to share their contents and inform their audiences. This work analyses the tweets posted by the accounts of twenty relevant Spanish mass media during the two weeks prior to the 10th of November General Elections in Spain. It was observed that political information was covered in more than one fifth of the tweets, that digital media were the ones paying most attention to politics, and that PSOE and VOX were the most mentioned parties.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
