It appears even more deception surrounds the Obama administration, and this time it has to do with how many people actually ‘like’ and ‘follow’ Obama himself. New reports have surfaced that more than half of President Obama’s 36.9 million Twitter followers are fakes.
Only 20% of Obama’s Twitter followers are real people, according to the Internet research firm Status People, which checks for fake followers.
It seems that, instead of actually saying something worthwhile, politicians resort to deception. Vice President Joe Biden did almost as bad in the world of Twitter; around 46% of his Twitter followers are fake. First Lady Michelle Obama had a few more followers: Around 36% of the accounts that followed her were apparently fakes.
Only 17.8million of Justin Bieber’s Twitter followers are real accounts, a mere 47 per cent of his total number of followers, according to social media analytics experts Socialbakers.
