⚡The biggest disruptors? Trump & Thunberg — opposite ends of the spectrum, both generating huge spikes in coverage by challenging the mainstream consensus. Elite newspapers have been their biggest amplifiers. (8/8)

🧵 New paper out: Mapping the discourse of climate change in four western countries (co-authored with Mike Scott) Our study tracks 18 years of climate change coverage across France, Germany, UK & US newspapers. Who actually gets the attention? A thread. (1/8)

Garmin schneidet im Vergleich zu anderen Schlaf apps am schlechtesten ab . Die durchschnittliche Übereinstimmung lag über die vier Schlafstadien (REM-Schlaf, Tiefschlaf, Leichtschlaf und Wachphase) hinweg zwischen 40 % und 50 % !!!! Was hat @Garmin vor?
