New publication out in #IJPP! 📑
We study how audience expectations of journalism 📰 shifted during COVID-19 in Austria 🇦🇹 – showing both short-term rally effects & longer-term recalibration 🔄.
Led by @clmron.bsky.social & @danielwiesner.bsky.social , w/ @andreasriedl.bsky.social & me. 1/n
Screenshot of an academic article titled “Rally and Recalibrate: Political Dynamics of Audience Expectations of Journalism During Times of Crisis” published in The International Journal of Press/Politics (OnlineFirst, Sage Journals). Authors: Claire Roney, Daniel Wiesner, Andreas A. Riedl, and Jakob-Moritz Eberl. The abstract explains that the study examines how audience expectations of journalism in Austria evolved during the COVID-19 pandemic. It identifies shifts toward emerging journalistic roles such as Fact Checker and Science Communicator, based on data from three waves of the Austrian Corona Panel Project. Findings show fluctuating audience expectations tied to changes in public trust and crisis dynamics, emphasizing journalism’s need for adaptability. Keywords listed: journalism, audience expectations, trust in institutions, crisis attitudes, survey research, COVID-19. doi: https://doi.org/10.1177/19401612251375203

Wer steckt sich eigentlich das Pfand für Dosen und Flaschen ein, die nicht zurückgegeben werden? Antwort: Die EWP Recycling Pfand Österreich gGmbH. In Summe etwa 40 Millionen Euro pro Jahr. Was sie mit dem Geld vorhat, wollte die EWP auf Anfrage nicht sagen. "Keine Zeit" für ein Interview.
Lukratives Leergut: Das Millionengeschäft mit verlorenem Pfand
Wie der Handel über Umwege vom Pfandschlupf profitiert. Wer letztlich das Pfandsystem bezahlt. Und was das mit einem Büro in der Schönbrunner Schloßstraße in Wien zu tun hat.

Hervorragender, würdevoller Nachruf von Steffen Mau @steffenmau.bsky.social und Michael Zürn auf den großen Claus Offe www.faz.net/aktuell/feui... Dankbar erinnernd: auf dem Gründungsparteitag der Grünen 1980. In Stanford 1988. Als Doktorvater 1996 an der @humboldtuni.bsky.social und immer wieder
Sozialwissenschaftler Claus Offe gestorben
Claus Offe prägte die Sozialwissenschaften mit scharfsinnigen Analysen und gesellschaftskritischen Perspektiven. Als Grenzgänger zwischen Soziologie und Politologie bleibt sein Werk wegweisend.

“The source told CBS News that [Kash Patel and Dan Bongino] asked for "large, beefy" agents to conduct an arrest of Comey "in full kit," including Kevlar vests and exterior wear emblazoned with the FBI logo.” The leadership of the FBI is now in the hands of infantile psychopaths.

What Trump has wrought: a reversal of attitudes on immigration. Now we're an immigrant nation again, we need more immigrants to maintain our economy, and Trump's persecution of immigrants is just wrong.

For the Guardian, @turnbulldugarte.com and I discuss our research that clearly shows one thing: Labour's anti-immigration strategy will only strengthen Reform and weaken its own electoral prospects. It won't win voters back but ultimately normalizes the far right

Mimicking Farage on immigration is senseless. Labour voters feel betrayed; anti-immigration voters see through the ruse, say academics Tarik Abou-Chadi and Stuart Turnbull-Dugarte

Am Samstag stand eine Diskussion zu „Fake News“ auf dem Programm. Mein wichtigster Punkt:
Größte Gefahr von #Desinformation geht nicht von anonymen Webseiten oder „Trollen“ aus. Viel problematischer ist #Desinfo von "oben" – von Politiker:innen & Parteien, die demokratische Spielregeln missachten.
Diskussionsrunde zu „Fake News 2.0“ im Saal, moderiert von Verena Latzer. Auf dem Podium sitzen von links nach rechts Margit Draxl, Jakob-Moritz Eberl, Viktoria Klimpfinger und Marcus Franz.
