Bridging the News and Social Media Divide
I examine the relationship between social media platforms and news organizations as it has evolved over the past two decades, showing that platform governance has affected individual users and news publishers in ways that often result in damage to democratic societies. I argue that the contraction of traditional journalism and rise of democratic backsliding around the globe call for a reconsideration of platform governance models that might help …
Social media regulation, third-person effect, and public views
Given the prevalence of misinformation on social media and accompanying negative externalities, platform regulation has become a highly contested public issue globally. This study investigated (a) what global publics think about platform regulation and (b) the psychological mechanisms underlying such opinions through the lens of the third-person effect. Four national surveys, conducted in the United States, the United Kingdom, South Korea, and Me…
Net Neutrality
This entry examines the principle of net neutrality, or the practice of nondiscrimination by Internet network managers with respect to data flows, and its implications for issues of power, control, and innovation in twenty‐first‐century societies. Differing global practices are reviewed, with a focus on the values that are embedded in the relevant technologies and how national political cultures, as well as powerful market actors, have responded …
The social silos of journalism? Twitter, news media and partisan segregation

Specifically, we ask, “what is the association between the partisan nature of the accounts journalists follow on Twitter and the news content they produce?” Using standard text scaling techniques, we analyze partisanship in a novel dataset of more than 300,000 news articles produced by 644 journalists …
Journalists’ Use of Knowledge in an Online World
There has been little empirical study of the extent to which journalists are drawing on and applying academic research and systematic knowledge, or of their sourcing routines and habits in this regard. This paper examines data from an original online survey conducted in fall 2015 with working journalists (N = 1,118). Over all, about half reported drawing on research studies frequently in their stories, and journalists expressed strong support for…
