My review of Jonathan Haidt‘s Anxious Generation now published at JMCQ. TLDR: While several arguments are compelling, the book misrepresents the literature, which reports small negative relations at best. Pub: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10… Preprint: osf.io/preprints/psya…

¿Ya leyeron el último #newsletter de #DigitalJournalism? si no lo han hecho, acá se los dejo. Viene con papers sobre #fakenews #hatespeech #propaganda y otros desórdenes (o #darkparticipation, como dice Thorsten Quandt) . Acá en su revista regalona 👇

My friend/colleague/role model Ingrid B. is running for #ICA president and I couldn’t be prouder! Excited and hopeful that a Latin America-based scholar as smart as Ingrid could be president of International Communication Association ❤️ Read her statement here: icahdq.org/blogpost/15236… Comunicaciones

I agree ! ❤️. If she runs the ICA as well as she has managed everything in her life (the research center we co-direct, the UC School of Journalism, etc), I can say with total certainty that the ICA will be in the best hands 💪

Ingrid B. is an amazing scholar and friend. Finding academics like her is not easy and we are really fortunate 🌟

I met Max McCombs 12 years ago, when I started my PhD in Journalism at UT Austin. He was a great mentor, and an incredibly generous professor. It was such an honor to meet him and learn from him. He will be deeply missed. journalism.utexas.edu/news/memoriam-…

Esta semana nos despedimos del académico Maxwell McCombs, fundador de la teoría de Agenda Setting y Doctor Honoris Causa de la Universidad Católica. Visitante frecuente de la FCOM, dejó una huella profunda en quienes lo conocieron. Los invitamos a conocer más acá: comunicaciones.uc.cl/fallece-maxwel…
