BBC: How are influencers affecting politics?-2

So, social media can be a powerful tool for politicians but getting involved in politics doesn't always go well for social media influencers. OK, Pippa, isn't time you revealed the answer to your question?

Yes, I asked "How many follwers does Cristiano Ronaldo, the footballer, have?" And the answer was c) 667 million, at the time of recording. That's a lot more than I have, Beth.

And me...Wow!

OK. Let's recap the vocabulary we've learned starting with the phrasal verb turned off, meaning uninterested. 

When super is placed before an adjective, it means very or more than usual. 

Social media influencers who shape the narrative have astrong influence over how something is presented or understood. 

If you branch out into something new, you start doing an activity or job that is different from what you usually do. 

A pushback is a negative reaction to something new that has happened. 

And finally, the phrasal verb dig up means to try and find information. This is often about a person and their private life in order to try and damage their reputation.
