Trying it here for the first time: academic hive, what are your top references for news framing of international issues/countries? @claesdevreese @sophielecheler @PolComm

Alas, you would have gotten a lot of feedback and engagement with this question in November or December. These days, these communities are fairly dormant or dead. 😞

I suspect you will have better luck on Twitter, or if Twitter is too toxic, perhaps there is a critical mass of these folks forming on #bluesky

@Chanders yeah--I was wondering if this place died. Didn't want to migrate yet again, also didn't want to keep using twitter for these things! oh well...
@patyrossini I wouldn't say it is dead across the board, but it is definitely not being used by the academic communities we were part of on Twitter.
@Chanders @patyrossini
yeah its a smaller and mostly different community. which is good and bad. on the question; I don't know a lot of new stuff on intl/ country framing, sry.
@claesdevreese @Chanders @patyrossini
I'm not going back to Twitter any time soon, but Mastodon hasn't yet even come close to the vibrant and mostly constructive intensity that we once found and contributed to on Twitter before, you know… it all went off the cliff edge.
@fheinderyckx @claesdevreese @Chanders @patyrossini devs are working hard on simplifying onboarding process, and apps are increasingly intuitive (I’m using Mammoth now). It is still early days. I expect when we reflect on communities on Twitter or Facebook or any of the other monoliths we’re not imagining what they were like at the very start, but when they reached optimum mass and engagement. It takes time.
@fheinderyckx @claesdevreese @Chanders @patyrossini curiously it is not the academic community that is missing on here, it is all the other people I was following that didn’t migrate - which then meant you’re doubling up to keep up 😂
