Interested in how journalism is conducted in digital newsrooms? Then this new article - by @janniehartley.bsky.social and @nannathylstrup.bsky.social - is a mustread.

Earlier this week, I was asked to tell my colleagues about the hashtag#NAMS25 conference. As part of my process, I tested a YouTube transcription tool, Notebook.lm, Canva, Pinpoint, ChatGPT, GPTs, etc. This is what I learned… www.linkedin.com/pulse/jeg-br...

Lise Møller Schilder bliver næstformand for @journalistforbundet.dk med stort flertal

@abthulstrup.bsky.social ny formand for @journalistforbundet.dk i et meget tæt valg #delmøde25

"Our parent company, Paramount, is trying to complete a merger. The Trump administration must approve it. Paramount began to supervise our content in new ways"

Hasn’t JD Vance… shrunk?

Maybe “experts shake their heads” should be considered a automated prefix for every news article concerning Trump’s politics at the moment.

Næste sæson af Last of us er lige på trapperne

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

Everything is fine… from the official White House account on X

Vildt nok. Uniformeret tysk politi tvang sig i dag mod arrangørernes vilje adgang til et foredrag på den tyske avis Junge Welt med Francesca Albanese, FN's særlige rapportør for menneskerettigheder i det besatte Palæstina: www.jungewelt.de/artikel/4942... 🧵

Huge congrats to dr. Filstrup! As her supervisors mentioned: she’s both incredibly bright and ditto kind.

Oplysning til togbrugere om banens tilstand: hvis du overvejer at tage DSB mellem landsdele i dag, så lad være. Pt. Er jeg to timer forsinket mellem kbh og Odense #da

There’s an interesting but chilling interview with Rohit Chopra, the recently fired Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, in the latest episode of Pod Save America (Is Elon a drag on Trump). Chopra talks about Elon Musk’s love of the “everything app” 1/3

I am, as always, impressed by pudding.cool, and as usual, they’ve nailed communication: by placing you as the user within the visualisation. That’s what you naturally do while reading that kind of story anyway, but this approach significantly enhances identification: pudding.cool/2024/11/sitt...

Utroligt - Bibi gav Trump en guldbelagt Apollo-personsøger i torsdags. Ja, den model.

Words that can trigger scrutiny and potentially cause funding to be denied by the US National Research Foundation include: female, gender, women, and hate speech… source www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

@chrismac1994.bsky.social kæmpe tillykke med eksamensbeviset i dag!

Et andet godt argument for at droppe diskussionen om tildækning (udover, at den er ... *suk*) er også, at hvis nogen niqab-, tørklæde-, maga-hat-, dinosaurdragt-bærende person ønsker uddannelse, så gør vi alt i verden for at give dem uddannelse #da

Det her er et journalistproblem. Men det er også et “alle” problem: hvem gør vi synlige. Journalister er også mennesker, der skal opdage stemmer, så tænk over, hvem du forstærker med likes og reposts. Hvem putter du på lister og i starter packs #dk

GitHub is showing the Trump administration scrubbing government web pages in real time 🔗 www.404media.co/github-is-sh...

Where do you go when you’ve had enough of tech bros? I've written a bit about alternative platformes to the usual meta, x, google-owned stuff: www.reconstructing-journalism.com/2025/01/23/w... (english version) www.reconstructing-journalism.com/2025/01/23/h... (Danish Version)

At tale med Trump? #da

If I still worked in a newsroom and not at uni, I would apply immediately. The Reuters Institute is offering journalists the chance to explore a subject they are passionate about, and get paid to do it. I’m always a bit jealous of those who get the fellowship!

Tracey Emin on the importance of art, being working-class, being a woman, and being an artist. Such an inspiring half hour with Dame Tracey

I feel so commodified. 😔

[da] I fredags havde jeg æren af at uddele dette års Cavling-pris, hvis du er nysgerrig på begrundelsen, så kan du læse velkomst- og vindertale her:

Interesting thread! Another thing, I think we’re missing in the debate about Metas changes is: how do they handle their algorithms. One thing is what people can post, another thing is: which parameters are Meta using for amplifying content? If rage is a parameter, it amplifies all these problems

NEW: I've obtained internal Meta docs revealing an array of sample posts that are now allowed under new hate speech rules. Examples include calling children "trannies," “Jews are flat out greedier than Christians," and “immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit” theintercept.com/2025/01/09/f...

Our Stage Talks return on the 16th of January. Can't wait? If you want to listen to conversations with leading voices from the open source research field, academia and journalism you can find all of our previous talks on podcast platforms under 'Stage Talks with Bellingcat' rss.com/podcasts/bel...

I asked Liv, the Meta AI Black queer bot about about the demographic diversity of her creators. And how they expect to improve “representation” without Black people. This was the response.

The entire day on BBC Radio4 is dedicated to celebrating 100 years of The Shipping Forecast. The best 1st of January ever! Arts, culture, and history: “Seamus Heaney described the bulletin itself as “verbal music … bedding the ear with a kind of linguistic hardcore that could be built upon some day”

I’ve been playing around with my last.fm data from the past six years and Flourish.studio. Forget Spotify Wrapped—here are the 20 artists I’ve listened to the most and how the percentage of listening has changed since 2018 (just trying to get better at working with data and Flourish).

[da] Det er simpelthen de smukkeste og mest illustrative portrætter, jeg længe har set 👏🏻 @sigridnygaard.bsky.social

Stort tillykke til alle nominerede. Vi glæder os til at fejre jer den 10. januar.

Good to see the Australian Human Rights Commission has weighed the implications of a social media ban and presented a sober critique. Much in line with points made (again and again) by researchers in the field. humanrights.gov.au/about/news/p...

Talked to a colleague earlier this evening about open access to scientific journals and told her about Aaron Swartz, which made me rewatch the documentary The Internet’s Own Boy – about internet freedom and the work Swartz did. Somehow it feels even more important today, because we’ve moved even 1/6

1/4 Et stykke af Danmark på størrelse med Fyn er ved at dø. Men vi kan ikke se det, for det er under vandet. Det her projekt, skulle virkelig have været nomineret til Cavling-prisen sidste år. Det blev det ikke, men det er syvende låge i min julekalender #DigitalJul

I dette klip fortæller @elnif.com om Blueskys potentiale og hvordan platformen handler mere om mennesker end algoritmer. Lyt til hele episoden her: ida.dk/raad-og-karr...

Hvis nogen skulle være i tvivl: Det er altså ikke i dag, men torsdag den 12. december, Cavlingkomiteen ringer rundt til de nominerede til #Cavlingprisen 2024! Og det bliver her på kanalen, det bliver offentliggjort først.

[da] "Når forskere på området maner til besindelse og grundigere studier og analyse af data, hvorfor vinder fortællingen om, at smartphones, gaming og sociale medier er ved at ødelægge generationer af unge så alligevel så stor udbredelse?"

I could make an entire 24-piece advent calendar made solely from articles by @puddingviz.bsky.social. I love their approach to culture and data—for example, this story about love songs: pudding.cool/2024/11/love... 1/2

What a nice idea: creating a QR code that links to an anonymous Google Form, allowing students or pupils to ask all the questions they don’t dare to ask in class. (It does seem like students are becoming more and more hesitant to ask questions out loud)
