Yet, we also find support gains *across partisan subgroups*, rather than simply concentrated amongst co-partisans or core supporters of politicians. There's no evidence of a backlash effect amongst out-partisans either.

For those worried about deepfakes, we find, reassuringly, that claims of misinformation are mostly ineffective against video evidence of scandal. However, some recent evidence (Study 4) suggests that this could change, especially as awareness of deepfakes further increases.

Based on 5 survey experiments (total n > 15k), we find claims of misinformation increase politician support compared to non-response. For scandals reported via text, these claims are effective when using strategies we call "informational uncertainty" or "oppositional rallying".
