Assistant professor @UUtah @UofUComm. Research on #misinformation #trust #scicomm #polcomm #mediaeffects #openscience.


Please consider helping the Comm Theory and Methodology division by signing up as a reviewer for #AEJMC25! We need you :) To sign up, please (1) fill out this survey: tinyurl.com/aejmc25-ctm and (2) create an account on AllAcademic: convention2.allacademic.com/one/aejmc/aejm…













If industry-controlled analyses like this showed no effects from #fossilfuels on #climatechange or no #cancer risks from smoking, most journals would not publish them. Social science needs to figure out how and why industry #COIs are different for #socialmedia and #polarization.

"Outside researchers were not allowed to handle the raw data." Against reviewer concerns, @ScienceMagazine publishes work that allows @meta to define what they consider #misinformation and largely absolves platforms from responsibility for #polarization. science.org/content/articl…
