Table 2 Interactions ego networks. The table contains information about each type of interaction network, as well as information about their aggregated version. We report the number of nodes N, edges E, the average degree \(\langle k\rangle \), and the number of IRA nodes \(N_{\mathrm{IRA}}\), with their in/out-degree. Retweeting and mentioning are the two most frequent types of interactions between IRA and non-IRA users
