“The Trump administration has largely succeeded in pushing the president’s core supporters to back off their online obsession with billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein,” according to a Washington Post analysis of far-right internet activity.
“But the topic is still hot in some corners of the internet, where anger simmers over the president’s handling of the matter.”
“To track the arc of online outrage, The Post analyzed more than half a million social media posts and podcast segments during the months of June and July from more than 450 right-wing and conservative influencers and politicians. The Post then used artificial intelligence to categorize 10,000 posts that mentioned Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell and examine the content of those posts.”
