SUMMARY:2022 Midterms: NYU Center for Social Media & Politics Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Media Consumption\, Misinformation\, and Polarization \nSocial media has transformed the media and political landscape\, but the vast majority of Americans still get their news from traditional sources such as local TV\, cable TV\, radio\, and newspapers. As the media environment continues to fracture\, how does news consumption and social media behavior affect how voters think about and engage in politics? This seminar will present new research on media consumption and the spread of misinformation in both English and Spanish\, the effects of partisan media on viewers’ beliefs and attitudes\, and the effect of media coverage on perceptions of political polarization. \n[…]\n

SUMMARY:CDCS Book Talk: Asta Zelenkauskaitė\, Drexel University
DESCRIPTION:With the prevalence of disinformation geared to instill doubt rather than clarity\,Creating Chaos Online\, unmasks disinformation when it attempts to pass as deliberation in the public sphere and distorts the democratic processes. \nDr. Zelenkauskaitė finds that repeated tropes justifying Russian trolling were found to circulate across not only all analyzed media platforms’ comments\, but also across two analyzed sociopolitical contexts suggesting the orchestrated efforts behind messaging. \nThrough a dystopian vision of publics that are expected to navigate in the sea of uncertain both authentic and orchestrated content\, pushed by human and nonhuman actors\, Creating Chaos Online offers a concept of post-publics. The idea of post-publics is reflected within the continuum of treatment of public\, counter public\, and anti-public. This book argues that affect-instilled arguments used in public deliberation in times of uncertainty\, along with whataboutism constitute a playbook for chaos online. \n[…]

SUMMARY:2022 Midterms: NYU's CSMaP Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Generation Gap: Why the Baby Boomers Still Dominate American Politics and Culture \nThe Baby Boomers are the largest and most powerful generation in recent American history. They dominate cultural and political institutions and make up the largest slice of the electorate. They’re also\, on average\, whiter\, wealthier\, and more conservative than younger generations\, placing them increasingly at odds with those voters. \nIn this seminar\, Penn State University Assistant Professor and CSMaP Faculty Affiliate Kevin Munger will discuss his new book\, which marshals novel data and survey evidence to argue that generational conflict will define the politics of the next decade. Munger examines the historical trends that made the Baby Boomers so consequential\, traces the emergence of age-based political and cultural divisions\, and explains how a shared identity and purpose among Millennials and Gen Z could topple Boomer power. Particular focus will be placed on how age impacts and is impacted by the new media environment. \nThe conversation will be moderated by Charlotte Alter\, a senior correspondent at TIME covering politics and social issues. She is also author of The Ones We’ve Been Waiting For: How a New Generation of Leaders Will Transform America\, which chronicles how the unique political and economic circumstances of millennial youth have shaped their political leanings\, and how they’re pushing back against Boomer dominance. \n[…]
