This chart is aneurysm inducing

Excellent and important prediction/warning from @pbump. Our research shows how journalists can (and should!) successfully defend themselves: journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

.@LSU is hiring for TWO positions (assistant/associate) in political communication. One joint appt. with poli sci, one 100% @ManshipSchool. LSU was a great place to teach and study @poli_com - you should apply! lsu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/LSU/job/0211-J…

Stop treating it like normal political negotiation; it's economic terrorism. They don't have the votes for the budget cuts they want so they're threatening to burn down the world economy to get their way. If you don't have votes for what you want to do, go win elections.

@deaneckles Yes. And effects in typical one-shot experiments may greatly underestimate effects that accumulate over repetition in the real world. Need more true experiments that involve repetition, like this: goo.gl/Sq75V8

If your observational study produces estimates of an effect that are orders of magnitude larger than expected given mountains of rigorous randomized experiments, then you especially need to explicitly argue why this is credible.

🚨New Publication Alert 🚨 I’m very happy to share that our study on the effects of racialized news during the early #COVID19 pandemic has been published in the Int Journal of Comm❗️#mediaeffects

News about how other countries have more successfully solved the same problem is an underused and understudied form of journalism. We find impressive benefits of such comparative news in the case of #COVID19 dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

What happens when we see news on other countries’ #COVID19 policies? In our latest @PLOSONE article, we report interesting effects on knowledge of policy differences, support for adopting similar policies, presidential blame, and trust in health experts doi.org/10.1371/journa…

Congratulations to LSU’s first Carnegie Fellows @joshuadarr and @CLAGeogs who were selected for this prestigious fellowship! More about our professors and the Carnegie Fellowship: lsu.edu/mediacenter/ne…

Our research note on partisan media experimental design is now published in the January 2022 issue of @PSRMJournal! Download it for free today. @kesearles @NathanKalmoe @pingree @mingxiaosui @brianKwatson doi.org/10.1017/psrm.2…

Reinstated is such a big word. Are we sure he didn’t mean incarcerated?

New research in @PLOSONE from our assoc. prof. Ray Pingree found op/eds can restore the belief that politically impartial truth-seeking is possible. 📍Read more from @pingree and co-authors Ph.D. student @Martina_Santia & alumni @KBryanov & @brianKwatson. bit.ly/3hZi7pk

Check out these two wonderful examples of defending impartiality (which we used as the stimulus in study 2): former Fox News anchor Shepard Smith @thenewsoncnbc and NYTimes columnist @nytdavidbrooks. youtu.be/YIwL6oftXd0

With co-authors @Martina_Santia, @KBryanov, @brianKwatson.

Cynical rhetoric has undermined faith in vital truth-seeking professions including journalism, science, and justice. Our study found that op/eds can restore the belief that politically impartial truth-seeking is possible. dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

Damn right. For the full effect watch the clip.

Thousands die every year from blood clots after reading shitty journalism. Also after eating breakfast. Time order is not evidence of causality. Millions are getting the vaccine. There will be coincidences.

I have one message to members of Congress who amplified lies to undermine our democracy, encouraged an attack on our Capitol, and tried to overturn our election: Resign. If your lust for power exceeds your dedication to democracy, there is simply no place for you in Congress.

Georgia on my mind
