PUBLICATION ALERT! Our new research in @journalqd.bsky.social maps the global landscape of political microtargeting across 95 countries during 113 elections. @meinungsfuehrer.bsky.social, @madshovethy.bsky.social, @madshovethy.bsky.social, Tom Dobber, Natali Helberger, @claesdevreese.bsky.social.

Social media research & reporting often focuses on large platforms. Much less is known about hyperlocal sites like Nextdoor, used by 1/3 US households. In @journalqd.bsky.social, we help fill this gap w/new data exploring communities & conversations on the site. 1/ journalqd.org/article/view...
