Happy to share my new paper online now @thejop.bsky.social

Punchline: state legislators whose districts are in out-of-state media markets are more likely to author and cosponsor policy innovations already adopted in the neighboring state.

To add to pieces already mentioned, check out Hicks' 2015 piece in APR. I also have a 2017 piece in SPPQ that controls for majority size. Null results in both cases. Also Rogers 2002 in Public Choice, although not quite measured as majority size in that case.

NBA: An hour ago we gave a guy 1 pt too many of 250 that will be scored in this game bc an inch of his foot was on the line. Let's fix it.
EPL: We chalked off a goal in a game where there's like 2 per game bc two ppl can't talk to each other on a call where a guy is a yard onside. Nothing we can do.
