incredible dry humour by AI summarising what it’s like to end up in a local news merger operation.

Yep, I'm on Substack: to make my research accessible and useful, I'll translate my work into digestible posts that explain how I study the local news market at scale, through text mining, to ask questions about media ownership, news deserts, and democracy: shorturl.at/q3VKI

What an awesome past few days attending @dh2025lisbon.bsky.social and getting to see *oh so beautiful* Lisbon at the same time. Still on a high from @icwsm.bsky.social, I feel honoured and humbled to having the chance to be in the room with scholars I admire and learn from. @ic2s2.bsky.social next!

don’t these look pretty? when I did my MSc at @iasliu.bsky.social’s then-just-begun CSS program many of these early graduates were our (very friendly and patient) TAs. Nice to see what they were up to beyond dealing with us, and the pool of graduates from IAS growing.

So excited to hit @icwsm.bsky.social conference with a dataset paper from my PhD research at @peoplecentredai.bsky.social. I will present tomorrow at @aau.dk in cyclist-friendly Copenhagen! Find me at the poster madness session in the afternoon!
