Propasafe-Hybrid: A Text-Based Hybrid Propaganda Detection Tool

A new arXiv paper, 2610.33464v1, introduces Propasafe-Hybrid, a sentence-level propaganda detection system that pairs a fine-tuned transformer classifier with LLM-based technique classification to identify, label and explain specific propaganda strategies. Propasafe-Hybrid outputs highlighted sentences, technique assignments and concise rationales, and uses a cost-aware pre-filtering stage that forwards only high-likelihood sentences to LLMs to reduce token usage while preserving the decision logic. The authors present the design as improving the explainability, efficiency and practical usability of sentence-level propaganda detection in real-world news environments.

arXiv:2610.33464v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Propagandistic content increasingly circulates through online news and social media, where readers often encounter it with limited scrutiny, highlighting the need for reliable and fine-grained detection. This paper introduces Propasafe-Hybrid, a sentence-level system that integrates a fine-tuned transformer classifier with LLM-based technique classification to identify, label, and explain specific propaganda strategies. The pipeline generates actionable outputs, including highlighted sentences, technique assignments, and concise rationales, so users can immediately understand why a sentence was flagged and how each label was determined. To control inference cost, Propasafe-Hybrid employs a cost-aware pre-filtering stage that forwards only high-likelihood sentences to LLMs, reducing token usage while preserving the underlying decision logic. Together, these design choices enhance the explainability, efficiency, and practical usability of sentence-level propaganda detection in real-world news environments.
