Heterogeneity measure for fake and real news in Weibo and Twitter. (A) The x axis is the size of the propagation network, and the y axis is the heterogeneity measure of the networks. The black line is the value of the star layout. The h is the difference of heterogeneity value between a real network and the corresponding value of star layout. (B) The scatter plot like in (A) for Twitter. (C) Distribution of h at five hours from the first re-posting of the Weibo propagation networks. The p-value here is below 0.01. (D) Distribution of h of all re-postings in Weibo for the whole lifespan. The p-value is below 0.01
