The focus of this competition is on determining whether or not the author of a Twitter feed is keen to spread fake news. Two have been the main aims: (i) to show the feasibility of automatically identifying potential fake news spreaders in Twitter; and (ii) to show the difficulty of identifying them when they do not limit themselves to just retweet domain-specific news. For this purpose a corpus with Twitter data has been provided, covering the English and Spanish languages.
