Default TikTok search results are reportedly swarming with misinformation

While TikTok is no stranger to fighting misinformation, the problem might be worse than you think. As the AP reports, internet trust researchers at NewsGuard have published a report claiming that almost 20 percent of sampled search results for major news topics included misinformation. The bogus claims covered subjects ranging from Russia's invasion of Ukraine through to COVID-19 vaccines and the January 6th, 2021 attack on the US Capitol.
