Workshop tackles online misinformation with LLMs and credible IR

The 6th Workshop on Reducing Online Misinformation through Credible Information Retrieval (ROMCIR 2026) aims to address the growing problem of information pollution, including fake news, deceptive reviews, and unverified medical advice.
