What Drives Perceptions of Foreign News Coverage Credibility? A Cross-National Experiment Including Kazakhstan, Russia, and Ukraine
Research on news credibility and susceptibility to fake news has overwhelmingly focused on individual and message-level factors explaining why people view some news items as more credible than others. We argue that the consistency of the message’s content with the dominant mainstream narrative can have a powerful explanatory capacity as well, particularly in the domain of international news. We test this hypothesis experimentally using a sample o…
Resistance, recuperation, or deviance? The meaning of personal internet use at work
The use of internet‐based tools during work for personal purposes is a widespread phenomenon in both private and public organisations. By analysing 30 in‐depth interviews with cognitive workers in Canada, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States, this study explores the ways in which contemporary workers engage in, experience, and rationalise personal Internet use at work. The results show that inter‐generational differences, organisatio…
The price of greater representation
Previous research suggested that news media coverage tone tends to become more negative for successful women in politics (but not for successful men) when compared with less successful and well-known women. This study tests this in 17 countries. Specifically, it examines relationships between greater parliamentary representation of women and the coverage tone in articles on women in that country through a computational analysis of millions of per…
Do Women in the Newsroom Make a Difference? Coverage Sentiment toward Women and Men as a Function of Newsroom Composition
Social Networking Sites
Social networking sites (SNSs) are web‐based services that allow Internet users to establish and sustain connections, debate social and political issues, interact professionally, and educate and entertain themselves. The emergence of SNSs as a global social phenomenon, their popularity, and their pervasiveness has generated considerable cross‐disciplinary research on their sociocultural, psychological, economic, and other implications.
A Paper Ceiling
In the early twenty-first century, women continue to receive substantially less media coverage than men, despite women's much increased participation in public life. Media scholars argue that actors in news organizations skew news coverage in favor of men and male-related topics. However, no previous study has systematically examined whether such media bias exists beyond gender ratio imbalances in coverage that merely mirror societal-level struct…
