I never properly introduced myself when I joined Oct. 29.

I have been teaching #journalism at NYU since 1986. I have a PhD in media studies. My masters thesis was on McLuhan. My PhD thesis was about the concept of "the public."

I write a lot about press coverage of politics, and try to puzzle out what journalists as a group are thinking, which is why my site is called pressthink.org

I've been online since 1996. Been blogging since 2003. On Twitter since 2008.

Thanks for making Mastodon.

@jayrosen_nyu wonderful to see you moved over here, as I am very close to abandoning the birdsite completely. Curious if you are going to discuss the friction that journa.host is dealing with over here Re: policy differences.

@ProgGrrl I noted that there was a meeting and an apology among the participants. I don't plan to do anything about it.

@jayrosen_nyu I think I know what you’re talking about, a very particular case. But I’m referring to a more general sense of finding one’s collective feet in a new space, deciding on best practices, etc. NB: I am not a journalist, just another one of your news junkie followers.

@ProgGrrl That's something I might write about, yes, once I learn more about the differences, and have something original to say. I hate to duplicae what others are saying.
