Heute beim Panel „Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Reach?“ auf der #ConsciousCommunicationConference des #PlatonInstituts
Wie frei ist unsere Meinungsbildung, wenn Plattformlogiken Aufmerksamkeit statt Argumente belohnen? Welche Rolle spielen populistische Akteur:innen? Und wo sind die #Gegennarrative?

In der aktuellen Ausgabe von #aviso #DGPUK habe ich über meine bisherige wissenschaftliche Laufbahn gesprochen, die Bedeutung von öffentlicher Kommunikation, internationale Kooperationen – und darüber warum unbefristete Mittelbaustellen keine Fabelwesen sein sollten. 🦄

Well, I guess I am most surprised about the 850.000 that still voted Cuomo. 🫠

Welche Artikel auf Wiki- & Grokipedia sind sich am ähnlich & welche ganz anders?
Nun – Elon Musk, Tesla & Neuralink sind quasi Kopien.
Transgender rights oder Climate change hingegen kaum.
Ein Schelm, wer da eine pol. Agenda vermutet 👀

The Bluesky icon on my phone changed. And I don’t like it.

Every season with new house rules that will make it „the most dramatic season yet“.

Btw. My favorite season is going to be The #RitterSport one. Make #TraubenNuss chocolate 🍫 and chill out.

Ooooh. Und ein Bild habe ich jetzt auch noch schnell erstellt. 😍

Hey! Look what's now out in print! And I am very happy to see that #Altmetrics currently logs our paper at 5000+ views and 6 citations already. 🤗 @digitaljournalism.bsky.social @compcommlab.bsky.social

Their means of communication is #Memes and #Trolling. Their main policy goal is #OwningTheLibs. Make no mistake: this – and only this – is why the White House, the Department of Homeland Security, and others have now joined #BlueSky. And all that during a government #Shutdown.

Selbstselektion & Mehrfachteilnahme unterminieren Grundlagen seriöser Stichprobenlogik.
Eine nachträgliche Gewichtung kann diese systematischen Verzerrungen nicht kompensieren.
Dass der ORF eine solche Umfrage als inhaltl. Aufhänger nutzt, ist methodisch & journalistisch fragwürdig & enttäuschend.

How much longer until this lemon finally turns yellow? 🍋
It’s been stuck in this green stage since July – any lemon-growing experts out there who can tell me what’s going on?

Für den #MedienInnovationsReport habe ich über unser abgeschlossenes – @analysiseuproject.bsky.social – gesprochen. @c10r4n.bsky.social & ich hatten gemeinsam mit @apa-faktencheck.bsky.social / @flopschmidt.bsky.social einen #FactCheckingKurs entwickelt – Ziel: Demokratisierung des Fact-Checkings.

Ein Chefredakteur über "Institute für Publizistik" in AT: "ideologische Bedürfnisanstalten, in denen Menschen, die für die Wissenschaft nicht genügend Talent oder Fleiß hatten."

Gleichzeitig: Gleich 3 österreichische Studien unter den „Most recent“ Artikeln in einem der führenden Journals im Fach.

I’m really happy to see this published – it builds on two earlier collaborations between @andreasriedl.bsky.social and me. Huge thanks to @clmron.bsky.social and @danielwiesner.bsky.social for taking the lead on this one! 12/end

Scope & limits ⚖️: Austria 🇦🇹 case; single-item role measures; #expectations (not #performance). Still, the crisis pattern – rally 🤝, recalibrate 🔄, reassert oversight 👀 – likely travels 🌍. Comparative work needed.
📊Data: Austrian Corona Panel Project via @aussda.bsky.social 10/n.

Now dynamic models 🔄 :
👀Watchdog rises ⬆️ via two paths – more quality-news use 📰 & trust in science 🔬, but also w/ declining trust in gov ⬇️.
🏛️Collaborator falls ⬇️ w/ lower trust in gov, weaker support for measures 🚫, & lower perceived risk ⚠️.
📉📈 "V-shaped" roles track shifts in personal risk 🫀. 8/n
October 6, 2025 at 8:36 AM
Now to the static predictors 🧩 – much to unpack here:
For example, 📰 Quality-news use → higher for 👀Watchdog, 🔬Science Communicator, ✅Fact Checker
📺Commercial-news use → 🎭Entertainer
🔬Trust in science → higher across nearly all roles⬆️
➡️Right-leaning ideology → lowers several expectations⬇ 7/n
October 6, 2025 at 8:36 AM
Result #1 📢: Audience expectations are volatile & context-dependent. Several roles show a clear “v-shape”📉📈 over time, peaking in acute phases of the pandemic.
📊Informer steadily declines⬇️
👀Watchdog increases⬆️
🏛️Collaborator drops⬇️
🔬Science Communicator & ✅Fact Checker find the highest support 3/n
October 6, 2025 at 8:36 AM
Design in brief 📝: We draw on the #ACPP (n≈1,500/wave; Apr 20, Jun 20, Jan 21).
Respondents rated how important they found 9 journalistic roles during the pandemic: 📊 Informer, 🧐Analyst, 📢 Mobilizer, 🤝 Missionary, 👀 Watchdog, 🏛️Collaborator, 🎭 Entertainer, 🔬 Science Communicator, & ✅ Fact Checker 2/n
October 6, 2025 at 8:36 AM
New publication out in #IJPP! 📑
We study how audience expectations of journalism 📰 shifted during COVID-19 in Austria 🇦🇹 – showing both short-term rally effects & longer-term recalibration 🔄.

This week, I joined the #PolishCommunicationAssociation in #Katowice 🇵🇱.
I presented @medem.bsky.social – where we stand as #EuropeanResearchInfrastructure ⚙️ & what lies ahead.
Many thanks to the MEDem teams at #UniversityOfSilesia, #JagiellonianUniversity, & #UniwersytetSWPS for the warm welcome.

Am Samstag stand eine Diskussion zu „Fake News“ auf dem Programm. Mein wichtigster Punkt:
Größte Gefahr von #Desinformation geht nicht von anonymen Webseiten oder „Trollen“ aus. Viel problematischer ist #Desinfo von "oben" – von Politiker:innen & Parteien, die demokratische Spielregeln missachten.

And in other posts NYT is just repeating conspiracy myths. This Is Not Journalism.

„Trump delivered impassioned – if scientifically dubious – remarks about the rise in autism“ — really? That’s what you went with @nytimes.com? Come on… 🫥
