the first American since Toni Morrison in 1993to win the titleAt the same time，the surprise announcement has also burned a firestorm of discussion around the globeInfluential US writer Jodi Picoult joked that she might now deserve a Grammy（美国金唱片奖）And wellknown BritishIndian novelist Hari Kunzru lamented（悲叹）on social media by saying：This feels like the lamest Nobel winner since they gave it to Obama for not being BushDylans new statusa musician awarded the Nobel Prize for literatureto a degree challenge traditionHowever，this is by no means his first prize for his writing talentsBack in 2020，the Pulitzer Prize jury（普利策奖评委会）awarded Dylan a special awardfor his profound impact on popular music and American culture，marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic powerTo this

and our limited attention，it is unavoidable that some popular unconfirmed information will spread quickly，regardless of their qualityEven if individuals tend to share information of higher quality，the networks as a whole is not effective at telling the difference between reliable and fake informationThis helps explain all the hoaxes we observe in the wildBesides，our attention is limitedIf we pay attention to a certain topic，more information on the topic will be producedIts cheaper to fake information and pass it off as fact than it is to report actual truthWe can make our fight against false news more efficiently if we better understand how false information spreadsIf，for example，robots are responsible for many pieces of the false news，we can focus attention on detecting themTo that end，our lab is building a platform called Hoaxy to track and monitor the spread of unreliable information on social mediaThat will give us realworld data，with which we can inform our imitated social networksThen we can test possible approaches to fight false newsHoaxy may also be able to show people how easy it is their opinion to be misrepresent by online information and how likely some of us are to share false news onlineHoaxy will join a set of tools in our Observatory on Social Media，which allows anyone to see how false information spread on the InternetIt is necessary that we spend resources on the study of this phenomenonWe need all hands on decks：Computer scientists，social scientists，economists，journalists and industry partners must work together to flight against the spread
