In recent times, there has been a growing body of research on the relationship between social media news use and affective polarization. Additionally, many studies have focused on the prevalence of fake news on social media. However, few studies have attempted to disentangle the dynamic relationships between these variables. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the dynamics of these three variables, specifically by testing the mediating role of fake news beliefs in the relationship between social media news consumption and affective polarization. To achieve this, a two-wave panel data was collected before and after the 2020 U.S. presidential elections. The study found that social media news use contributes to fake news beliefs, but fake news beliefs does not mediate the relationship between social media news use and affective polarization. The implications of these findings are discussed.
