SF-based @Fiskkit founder @JohnGPettus called 230 “the rock on which all websites that deal in user-generated content are built—they would not exist if people could sue companies for whatever their users put online.” engine.is/news/startupsevery…

Totally agree with @jappleby - 99% of times rushing to new platforms makes absolutely no sense for your strategy. Plus, an old mantra of mine: “Don’t go on a platform if you have nothing to say on it.” Read this now instead of regretting it tomorrow 👉 marketingbrew.com/future-soc…

Foi publicado meu segundo artigo no site do @IC4ML sobre educação midiática no contexto da aprendizagem permanente (de 3). Orgulhoso em fazer parte do board do IC4ML porque essa é uma das primeiras organizações de educação midiática do mundo. ic4ml.org/blogs/midiabox-med…

Hurt us if you have to; just don’t help them!! New study finds “that individuals prefer to harm their own group rather than provide even minimal support to an opposing group across polarized issues (abortion access, political party, gun rights).” 🔓 doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2215633…

I believe it’s time to ask why we’re on Twitter now. I loved this platform, albeit I was a relatively more recent adopter. I’m losing conviction it’s ok to be here as security & safety are rapidly falling away globally: washingtonpost.com/technolog…

A false dilemma tries to make us think that we have to be on "this" side or "that" side, when it is not always so black and white. #medialiteracy #falsedilemmas ow.ly/JGCw50LSwSc

A loyal audience came out in the pouring rain — thank you! What a great dialogue with @JMLudes as we analyzed contemporary propaganda and considered the social responsibilities of platforms, authors and audiences. Thx @pellcenter
On my way to the @PellCenter for a talk on propaganda in a post-truth world with moderator @jimludes. Join us! events.salve.edu/event/media…
Very happy to see our new incivility study is out! Using a systematic quantitative content analysis of Belgian election debates over time (1985-2019), we show that politicians' use of incivility did not increase over time, but is highly context-specific📊 [1/6] @turkenburgemma
