I am so happy to see this published! (And delighted that my excellent coauthors went along with my suggested title of 'Candidates be Posting')

✨NEW PAPER OUT✨ “Far-right challenges to liberal democratic press norms: ‘indexing by proxy’ in a German immigration debate” together with Lance Bennett & @ulrikeklinger.bsky.social in @journal-of-comm.bsky.social. Why do far-right issues keep making the news? 🧵⤵️ academic.oup.com/joc/advance-...

If you work in higher-ed, please read this interview with @dkreiss.bsky.social. I believe the types of public signals to the sector he points to here have direct ramifications beyond the US.
