My study looking at perceptions of #COVID19 news is out in Communication Research Reports. The big takeaway: News consumers were more critical of the news they thought *others* were getting early in the pandemic #polcomm#masscomm https://t.co/iXfDUCMpQO
Stats from the @AEJMC_PolComm Division for this year’s @AEJMC conference. The worst part of being Research Chair is being unable to accept *all* the awesome papers, but we’ve got some real gems in the lineup for August!
Calling all Pol Comm scholars - I'd sure appreciate your help reviewing in the @AEJMC_PolComm division for the 2021 @AEJMC conference. We had some real gems last year (both reviewers and papers)! https://t.co/GBYl062rE9
As we count down the days to Nov 3, it is clear that media coverage of this presidential election will play a central role in shaping American democratic health.
As scholars of politics & media we want to help.
More at 8:30am EST tomorrow.

Today is the voter registration deadline in Virginia and I've been getting errors on the Dept. of Elections website all morning. Tried a few different computers/browsers, same error message.
Teaching about political communication or media this fall? Consider the new textbook Mediated Democracy: Politics, the News, and Citizenship in the 21st Century by @prowag and @malloryperryman

It’s a thrilling read! And by thrilling, I mean competent, mostly non-boring, and full of stories about the weird things that happen in the land of media and politics.
For you fall adoption in your Political Communication, Media and Behavior, Intro to Mass Comm courses. I’m happy to Zoom in anytime to lead a discussion or take questions in your classes! https://t.co/urAOHnReV1 your pals, @prowag and @malloryperryman
How do partisans evaluate polls? New research from our affiliates @FoleyJ0 and @prowag with @malloryperryman shows how partisans view unfavorable polls as biased news that should mobilize their side to vote come election day. Full article: https://t.co/dtbwq0lIZ3
Happy to share our new article, led by the fabulous @malloryperryman of @VCU, & @FoleyJ0, off to his asst. prof. gig @WSUPullman. We asked if people viewed objectively gathered bad news (poll showing your candidate losing) was deemed biased news. https://t.co/olke09AVSh 1/
I'm sharing all my Introductory Broadcast Writing course material (video lectures, assignments, etc.) online over the next four weeks. Feel free to borrow! https://t.co/XBQYUar4hM #aejmc#rtdna#poynter
About to field a study about public perceptions of how news media are covering #COVID. So many questions that need answers. Thank you to IRB for turning around my application in 2 hours (seriously, I'm gobsmacked).
Figuring out how to go online-only for our TV reporting classes in case of campus shutdown. Going to be a challenge, but also a chance to get creative with mobile editing, virtual interviews, etc. Open to suggestions.
