Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10.
This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.

BREAKING: Look at this.
A new crypto wallet was created Friday.
It literally started shorting the market, with Bitcoin & Etherum shorts, JUST BEFORE Trump posted about tariffs.
It last short was placed at 4:49 PM EST.
Trump posted at 4:50PM EST.
It made nearly $200 million in profits.
Unusual.

Hyper enthusiast, price-insensitive players are really keeping things going, especially in the non f2p gaming space.
According to Circana's Q3 2025 Future of Games, only 4% of US video game players buy a new game more often than once per month, with a third of players not buying any games at all.

TheGamer interviews Randy Pitchford about 'Borderlands 4' and asked him about the Stop Killing Games movement and Gearbox hero shooter 'Battleborn' which flopped pretty hard.

The second season of HBO's genre hit racked up a lot of noms, including best lead acting nods for Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal (despite his rather limited screen time).

Eight years ago, Hitman developer IO Interactive was bleeding so much money that Square Enix paid to get rid of it.
Now it's one of the largest privately owned video-game companies in the world, with 500 employees.
