Dit is inderdaad onverwacht en reden voor voorzichtig optimisme!
Als dit gerealiseerd gaat worden is dat een grote opsteker voor al diegenen die actie hebben gevoerd tegen het desastreuze onderwijsbeleid van het kabinet Schoof! ✊
Seems even more relevant today as we talk about #bias and #neutrality in public service media globally"
Quick thread on the BBC and the political and societal significance of recent developments:
One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.

DO NOT USE AI CHATBOTS AS YOUR VOTE ADVICE APPLICATION AHEAD OF (THE DUTCH) ELECTIONS

Weer een heel sterk opgezet debat van de NOS. Het format met 6 rondes van 3 heeft veel thema's, toch voldoende rust, en een kans voor alle deelnemers. (Bijna) geen toeters en bellen en met een goede gespreksleider. Een sterke combinatie.
This is the final 'poll of polls' before the Dutch elections. Three parties at the same level, and two more not much smaller. Given the high percentage of late deciders and voters in doubt, the outcome is still very much uncertain. 🧵
Out now: key data from the third wave of the Worlds of Journalism Study. 75 countries, >32,350 journalists, >300 researchers, seven years of successful collaboration. Many thanks to all who contributed to this project!

SBS6-Debat: Onderwerp 'wonen' wordt door de debatorganisatoren meteen geframed als migratie-onderwerp (voorrang statushouders).
De quickscan die je wist dat zou komen. Het is aan de journalistiek (debatleiders!) dit een thema voor de verkiezingen te maken.
De PVV komt eind deze maand misschien wel als grootste uit de bus, maar wordt door veel partijen uitgesloten. Dat klinkt ondemocratisch, maar is het niet. Want échte democratie bestaat uit veel meer dan de meeste stemmen gelden.

🌟 Exciting news! I’m thrilled to share that I have received a SCALE-UP grant from @acesuva.bsky.social for my project on the impact of accurate and inaccurate bias accusations on bias perceptions towards public media. Looking forward to presenting these results at their upcoming workshop ⤵️
Are universities perceived as left-wing bastions? Are police officers seen as right-wing? And are judges considered impartial?
In a new publication in @ejprjournal.bsky.social, Erika van Elsas, @mauritsmeijers.bsky.social, and I answer these questions ... (1/3)

Het is niet heel eenvoudig maar wat zijn de gevaren van politieke informatie online, verspreiding en 'vervuiling' van chatbots? Ik sprak er met @trouw.nl over

📰 Media exposure and extreme views
A new study found that uncritical TV interviews with extreme right activists increase agreement with their views and the belief that more people support them.
