News organizations have been under financial pressure to streamline their activities for decades. Critics argue that this pressure undermines the quality of news, posing a severe threat to democracy. However, the effects of media consolidation on news quality are theoretically ambiguous and empirical evidence is scarce. To address this gap, we study the case of the Swedish newspaper industry between 2014 and 2022, a period where more than half of the country’s newspapers changed their owners. We collect over 2 million articles from 108 newspapers and apply state-of-the-art computational methods to create theoretically grounded, fine-grained measures of news content quality. Our results indicate that mergers are associated with slight increases in content quality. However, we also find evidence of content homogenization, as merging newspapers tend to slightly decrease their provision of local news, while relying more on content shared with co-owned newspapers.

The queer vanguard: how television streaming platforms promoted intersectional LGBTQ+ content to establish their brands

The “queer vanguard” theorizes how Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and other television streaming platforms articulated intersectional lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and nonbinary (LGBTQ+) representations with attributes of narrative complexity, hipness, prestige, and authenticity in pursuit of subscribers. Streamers reworked branding strategies innovated in the 1980s and 1990s by cable and broadcast channels that produced Black-cast shows, and by cable channels in the early twenty-first century that centered gay and lesbian characters. Using an innovative approach that explores media practice as research method, I argue that streamers advanced the queer vanguard to attract subscribers to their original content, develop distinctive libraries, sustain subscribers’ attention, and expand their markets. As the streaming wars have ensued, digital distributors are returning to traditional television practices of appealing to mass audiences with ad-supported content that threatens the future of the complex, intersectional LGBTQ+ narratives that have been central to “Peak TV.”

Many families in the United States hold divergent political beliefs, which may cause relational issues between parents and affect the political socialization of their child(ren). Through a mixed-methods approach, we first assess data from in-depth interviews (N = 30) with parents in cross-cutting romantic relationships, or relationships where partners hold different political beliefs, to inductively explore the connection between parent politics and political socialization within the family. We find that parent political differences shape parent political communication, which is related to the political socialization of their child(ren). Drawing from these interviews, we employ survey data of cross-cutting and politically similar parents in the U.S. (N = 484), offering complementary evidence that cross-cutting parent relationships are negatively associated with expressiveness and political socialization, and that the relationship with political socialization is mediated by parent expressiveness. These findings showcase the role that parent disagreement plays in family political communication and political socialization.
在美国,许多家庭持有不同的政治信仰,这可能会导致父母之间的关系问题,影响孩子的政治社会化。通过混合方法的方法,我们首先评估深度访谈(N = 30)的数据,这些数据来自交叉恋爱关系或伴侣持有不同政治信仰的关系中的父母,以归纳探索父母政治与家庭内政治社会化之间的联系。我们发现父母的政治差异塑造了父母的政治沟通,这与他们的孩子的政治社会化有关。从这些访谈中,我们采用了美国跨领域和政治相似的父母的调查数据(N = 484),提供了补充证据,证明跨领域父母关系与表达性和政治社会化负相关,并且与政治社会化的关系是由父母表达性介导的。研究结果表明,父母意见分歧在家庭政治沟通和政治社会化中的作用。

Drawing from theory about rumination, we examine the impact of verbal rumination over time and in conjunction with co-rumination in online health communities. Our analyses show that when users verbally ruminated in a message starting a thread (compared to when they did not), they were more likely to again verbally ruminate and to report a negative mood in the next thread they started. These relationships, however, varied over time as well as when other community members co-ruminated. When co-rumination from stronger ties or weaker ties in the community was present in responses (compared to when co-rumination was absent), users were less likely to continue engaging in verbal rumination. Users were also less likely to report a negative mood over time when co-rumination by stronger and weaker ties was present. This project advances our understanding of verbal rumination and co-rumination as communication phenomena in the context of online health communities.
根据反刍理论,我们研究了语言反刍随时间的影响,并结合在线健康社区的共同反刍。我们的分析表明,当用户在启动一个线程的消息中口头反思时(与不这样做的情况相比),他们更有可能再次口头反思,并在他们启动的下一个线程中报告消极情绪。然而,这些关系随着时间的推移以及其他社区成员的共同反思而变化。当来自社区中较强关系或较弱关系的共同反刍出现时(与没有共同反刍时相比),用户不太可能继续进行口头反刍。随着时间的推移,当存在强弱关系的共同反思时,用户也不太可能报告消极情绪。这个项目促进了我们对言语反刍和共同反刍作为在线健康社区背景下的交流现象的理解。

Mobile and platform users’ mediatized rituals in response to terrorist attacks: a discourse analysis of continuously collected screenshots 手机和平台用户应对恐怖袭击的中介仪式:对连续采集截图的话语分析

This article conducts a discourse analysis of continuously collected screenshot data capturing responses from US mobile users and their broader ecosystems to a series of Daesh (ISIS) terrorist attacks in Europe and North Africa in 2017. It identifies four genres of mediatized rituals in observed responses. Three micro-ritual genres focus on individual reparative action detached from systemic analysis or obvious collective action. The fourth genre, accretion of violence, draws on the micro-rituals while aiming to mobilize users against the specter of a left-liberal-Islamist alliance, the decline of “Western Civilization,” and coming sectarian violence. These mediatized ritual genres overlap beyond a confined “space” or “time” as we might understand more traditional conceptions of ritual, and traverse platforms and events. Most urgently, the accretion of violence articulates transnational far-right authoritarian and conspiratorial discourses. The ritual accretion of violence reveals mediatized dynamics among contemporary anti-democratic subjects, with political implications beyond personalized reparative actions.
本文对持续收集的截图数据进行了话语分析,这些数据捕捉了美国移动用户及其更广泛的生态系统对2017年欧洲和北非发生的一系列Daesh (ISIS)恐怖袭击的反应。它在观察到的反应中确定了四种调解仪式。三种微仪式类型侧重于脱离系统分析或明显的集体行动的个人修复行动。第四种类型是暴力的增加,它利用微观仪式,同时旨在动员用户反对左翼自由主义伊斯兰联盟的幽灵,“西方文明”的衰落,以及即将到来的宗派暴力。这些媒介化的仪式类型超越了局限的“空间”或“时间”,正如我们可能理解的更传统的仪式概念一样,并跨越平台和事件。最紧迫的是,暴力的增加阐明了跨国极右翼威权主义和阴谋论的话语。暴力的仪式增加揭示了当代反民主主体之间的调解动态,具有超越个性化修复行动的政治含义。

This article analyses the global dominance of three U.S.-based platforms (Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Netflix) on the streaming market. It investigates their reconfiguring of the TV industry around a global value chain, akin to other highly globalized industries, and characterized by the presence of a few lead firms operating in multiple markets and leveraging hundreds of suppliers worldwide. These streaming platforms benefit from transnational network effects and the coordination of supply chains on a global scale. By building large content libraries and accumulating foreign assets, they are transforming international trade flows in the process. Since 2020, the United States imports more audiovisual services, including movies and television programming, than it exports. This research demonstrates how the impact of these platforms is positive on local creative ecosystems, despite power asymmetries at play, and negative on local broadcasters.
本文分析了美国三大流媒体平台(亚马逊Prime Video、迪士尼+、Netflix)在全球流媒体市场上的主导地位。它调查了他们围绕全球价值链对电视行业的重新配置,类似于其他高度全球化的行业,其特点是在多个市场运营的几家领先公司,并利用全球数百家供应商。这些流媒体平台受益于跨国网络效应和全球范围内供应链的协调。通过建立大型内容库和积累外国资产,它们正在改变国际贸易流。自2020年以来,美国进口的视听服务,包括电影和电视节目,超过了出口。这项研究表明,尽管存在权力不对称,但这些平台对当地创意生态系统的影响是积极的,对当地广播公司的影响是消极的。

People are frequently exposed to different extents of affective and cognitive appeals, but it remains unclear whether appeals targeting emotions or beliefs are differentially effective across cultures. Hence, this meta-analysis investigates the relative influence of affective versus cognitive appeals for persuasion outcomes as a function of individualism-collectivism. Using 133 samples across 22 countries (N = 29,338), we found affective appeals to be relatively more effective than cognitive appeals in collectivistic societies, but both appeals were similarly effective in individualistic societies. These analyses demonstrate the fruitfulness of examining affective–cognitive appeals through a cultural lens, and suggest new directions for future research.
人们经常接触到不同程度的情感和认知诉求,但目前尚不清楚针对情感或信仰的诉求在不同文化中是否有不同的效果。因此,本荟萃分析调查了情感诉求与认知诉求对说服结果的相对影响,作为个人主义-集体主义的函数。在22个国家的133个样本中(N = 29338),我们发现情感诉求在集体主义社会中比认知诉求相对更有效,但这两种诉求在个人主义社会中同样有效。这些分析表明,从文化的角度审视情感认知诉求是富有成效的,并为未来的研究提出了新的方向。

The visual nature of information warfare: the construction of partisan claims on truth and evidence in the context of wars in Ukraine and Israel/Palestine 信息战的可视性:在乌克兰和以色列/巴勒斯坦战争背景下构建关于真相和证据的党派主张

Despite the potential of visual disinformation to deceive people on pressing socio-political issues, we currently lack an understanding of how online visual disinformation (de)legitimizes partisan truth claims at times of war. As an important next step in disinformation theory and research, this article inductively mapped a wide variety of global visual disinformation narratives on armed conflicts disseminated via social media. The narratives were sampled through various international fact-checking databases, involving multiple social media platforms and countries. The analyses reveal that visual disinformation mainly consisted of existing footage that was decontextualized in a deceptive manner based on time, location, or fictionality. Moving beyond existing research exploring how decontextualized visuals offer proof for counter-factual narratives, our findings indicate that visuals contribute to the process of othering by constructing a “delusional rationality” that legitimizes mass violence and the destruction of the other. These findings have crucial ramifications for international policy and interventions at times of global armed conflicts that are covered widely across social media channels.
尽管视觉虚假信息有可能在紧迫的社会政治问题上欺骗人们,但我们目前还缺乏对网络视觉虚假信息如何在战争时期使党派真理主张(去)合法化的了解。作为虚假信息理论和研究的下一个重要步骤,本文对通过社交媒体传播的有关武装冲突的各种全球视觉虚假信息叙事进行了归纳。这些叙事通过各种国际事实核查数据库进行抽样,涉及多个社交媒体平台和多个国家。分析表明,视觉虚假信息主要包括根据时间、地点或虚构性以欺骗性方式解构的现有片段。我们的研究结果表明,视觉资料通过构建一种 "妄想的合理性",使大规模暴力和对他者的破坏合法化,从而推动了他者化进程。在全球武装冲突被社交媒体广泛报道时,这些发现对国际政策和干预措施具有重要影响。

Changing levels of public trust in the news are of deep concern to both researchers and practitioners. We use data from 2015 to 2023 in 46 countries to explore how trust in news has changed, while also exploring the links with sociodemographic variables, differences by media system, and changing patterns of news use. We find that (a) there has been a small overall decline in trust in news since 2015, but also that (b) there are different trends in different countries. More specifically, trust has declined more in media environments that have become less structured by television news use, and increasingly structured by social media news use. Our findings underscore how changing structures of media use may be central to explaining trust dynamics in recent years, which suggests new avenues for restoring trust where it has eroded.
公众对新闻信任度的变化引起了研究人员和从业人员的深切关注。我们利用 46 个国家从 2015 年到 2023 年的数据,探讨了新闻信任度的变化情况,同时还探讨了与社会人口变量、媒体系统差异以及新闻使用模式变化之间的联系。我们发现:(a) 自 2015 年以来,新闻信任度总体上略有下降,但(b) 不同国家有不同的趋势。更具体地说,在受电视新闻使用结构影响较小、受社交媒体新闻使用结构影响较大的媒体环境中,信任度下降幅度更大。我们的研究结果强调了媒体使用结构的变化可能是解释近年来信任动态的核心原因,这为在信任受到侵蚀的地方恢复信任提供了新的途径。

Based on 9 months of ethnographic fieldwork in Istanbul, Turkey, this article explores the affective attachments circulating around urban spaces of journalism in Istanbul, with particular attention to how experiences of urban life shape journalists’ imaginaries of their relationship to each other, the city, their audience, and the broader “public” of Turkey. This article considers how journalistic life and practice is a form of subjectivity that hinges upon spatialized affects and affective spaces. These affects emerge as the physical landscapes and spaces of journalism alter, whereby journalists attach and reflect on different spaces as they try to make sense of their professional lives amidst the uncertainties of spatial change. This article orients the narratives presented—which highlight themes of professional solidarity, dispossession, and social isolation—to argue that definitions and practices of journalism are “embedded in the changing rhythms and dynamics of urban life” (Rodgers et al., 2014: p. 106).
本文基于在土耳其伊斯坦布尔进行的为期 9 个月的人种学实地调查,探讨了围绕伊斯坦布尔新闻业的城市空间所产生的情感依附,尤其关注了城市生活经验如何塑造了新闻记者对他们与彼此、城市、受众以及更广泛的土耳其 "公众 "之间关系的想象。本文探讨了记者的生活和实践是如何成为一种主观性形式的,而这种主观性形式又是如何依赖于空间化的情感和情感空间的。这些情感随着新闻业的物理景观和空间的改变而产生,记者们在空间变化的不确定性中试图理解自己的职业生活时,会依附于不同的空间并对其进行反思。本文所呈现的叙事突出了职业团结、一无所有和社会孤立等主题,旨在论证新闻业的定义和实践 "嵌入了城市生活不断变化的节奏和动力之中"(罗杰斯等人,2014:第 106 页)。
