Some research I have patiently waited to share is finally out in the @IJoC_USC ! I discuss how GNI embeds three distinct dependencies within Indian newsrooms. It's the first solo article stemming from my doctoral research. 🚨OA - Fishing for thoughts! ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc…

I enjoyed a lot this article that analyzes the impact of Google News Initiative in India. As Google through its cash increasingly controls the media research narrative across the world, such work is particularly valuable and needed. #media #journalism #tech #research #academia

Once again, this just goes to show how conditional and contingent the power of civil society can be in platform governance. Platforms (and states) can to easily yank away civil society powers for their interests
The New York Times@nytimes

Breaking News: Meta said it would end its fact-checking program and rely instead on Facebook and Instagram users to add notes or corrections to posts. The move is likely to please the incoming Trump administration and its conservative allies. nyti.ms/4a4kHUd

🚨🚨 In a direct attempt to stifle online speech & expression, @MIB_India wants to regulate online content on “news & current affairs”, by sneaking in revisions to the Broadcasting Bill, 2023. How does this affect content creators & all of us? 1/7🧵👇 hindustantimes.com/india-news/new…

This will have grave effects on access to diverse news sources and journalists, especially those moving to independent creator accounts (propelled by Instagram’s algorithmic preference)
