It’s performing really slow right now. Is it possible to tell if virality of a news article is organic or manufactured? Organic is when it is produced by a reporting organization but can you see direct lineage to re-spreaders?

You can kinda tell based on the distribution. Organic spread has less similarity between articles, less syndication, more spread out in timeline of releases...

Some stories are very clearly manufactured
