Methods, systems, and media for presenting comments based on correlation with content

A system for presenting comments, the system comprising:

• a hardware processor that:
• receives a first user comment and a second user comment to be presented in connection with a video, wherein the first user comment includes first text data and wherein the second user comment includes second text data;
• compares at least a portion of the first text data from the first user comment and at least a portion of the second text data from the second user comment to third text data of spoken content in the video;
• determines, based on the comparison, that the first user comment and the second user comment are quoting a group of words contained in the video;
• generates a score for the first user comment and the second user comment based at least in part on how closely the first user comment and the second user comment are quoting the group of words contained in the video;
• and
• causes at least the first user comment and the second user comment to be presented to in association with playback of the video.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for presenting comments, the method comprising:

• receiving a first user comment and a second user comment to be presented in connection with a video, wherein the first user comment includes first text data and wherein the second user comment includes second text data;
• comparing at least a portion of the first text data from the first user comment and at least a portion of the second text data from the second user comment to third text data of spoken content in the video;
• determining, based on the comparison, that the first user comment and the second user comment are quoting a group of words contained in the video;
• generating a score for the first user comment and the second user comment based at least in part on how closely the first user comment and the second user comment are quoting the group of words contained in the video;
• and
• causing at least the first user comment and the second user comment to be presented to in association with playback of the video.
