Popis: The FakeNews task in MediaEval 2022 investigates the challenge of finding accurate and high-performance models for the classification of conspiracy tweets related to COVID-19. In this paper, we used BERT, ELMO, and their combination for feature extraction and RandomForest as classifier. The results show that ELMO performs slightly better than BERT, however their combination at feature level reduces the performance.
