Hey #ica25 I know I've plugged this pretty hard all conference, but it would really help us if you could fill in this brief questionnaire which will inform the prioritisation of the platforms, data types, collection mechanisms, etc. that we are going to develop in the @internetobservatory.org.au

Still overcome with emotions after last night's celebration of the lives & contributions of Drs.McCombs & Shaw during the half century of agenda setting research. What a wonderful reunion at #ica25 with multiple generations of students and mentees who continue to carry on their legacy.

This will create a critical vacuum in the media scene in many countries, particularly the Balkans, where people have come to rely on fair and objective reporting on internal affairs from VOA. As Voice of America Goes Dark, Some Broadcasts Are Replaced by Music www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/b...

The tendency to intimidate journalists by political & economic elites is a trademark of the Balkan clientelist media systems. For the first time, this is being done publicly and systematically by the ruling party during an electoral campaign in Kosovo. Alarming! balkaninsight.com/2025/01/14/k...

I always look forward to @niemanlab.org predictions for the year ahead! Here's a jewel for 2025: “If you are a journalist or a journalism student, you should play with it (AI), a lot, while it’s still open and cheap.” www.niemanlab.org/2024/12/play...

Play with AI like your career depends on it (it does)

The evening started with an eye-opening dinner conversation with @christiandavenport.bsky.social about tech barons' space race & the grim post-election reality of journalism. It ended with comic relief from David Sedaris' witty interpretation of the current social condition. My mind is restless!
