And finally tomorrow at 15:30: a joint paper with @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social, @richardfletcher.bsky.social and @rasmuskleis.bsky.social on audiences and their views on AI-generated misinformation 🤖 ⚠️

The editorial team at @reutersinstitute.bsky.social has put together a website of our talks, featuring @waqasejaz.bsky.social, @richardfletcher.bsky.social, @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social, @rasmuskleis.bsky.social, & a collab with @c3ds.bsky.social reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/news/here-ar...

How harmful is GenAI around elections? Will it trigger a misinformation apocalypse and upend elections? I am happy to finally be able to share @sachaltay.bsky.social & my answers to these and other questions on which we have been working for a year and which is now out via @knightcolumbia.org

The success of these tools will largely depend on how keen audiences are to use them in the first place, and there are big regional and demographic differences. www.niemanlab.org/2025/06/ai-p...

Here are some key findings about how audiences think about news personalisation in the AI era from my chapter in the @reutersinstitute.bsky.social Digital News Report 2025. 🧵 #DNR25

"When we ask audiences about their interest in options for adapting news to their needs with AI, we find relatively low interest across the board" Read @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social chapter on how audiences think about personalisation and AI #DNR25 reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/digital-news...

News is too much and too negative according to growing shares of the audience. In 2025, 40% say they sometimes or often avoid the news (up from 29% in 2017). Switzerland & Germany right on trend. Why? • 39%: “negatively affects my mood” • 31%: “worn out by the amount” • 30%: “too much conflict”

Today's the big day! Here is a thread with some of the key findings from our Digital News Report 2025 #DNR25

Proud to have co-authored our factsheet on women & leadership in the news with @amyrossarguedas.bsky.social & @rasmuskleis.bsky.social . Deep-seated structural inequalities don't disappear on their own. The current political environment makes it difficult, perhaps even dangerous to address this.

Meta's decision to ditch fact-checkers in the US reeks of dangerous opportunism, prioritizing 'community-driven' spin over accountability. With Indian fact-checkers heavily reliant on Meta funding, this could spell disaster for truth & transparency globally. indianexpress.com/article/busi...

Out today: Reuters Institute trends and predictions 2025 report by Nic Newman and @fedecherubini.bsky.social. As always, excellent insights on the news industry's challenges, strategies, and innovations for the year ahead. Thread with key findings here.

Far from "censorship", in their 2024 EU DSA Systemic Risk Assessment and Mitigation Report, Meta proudly trumpets their work with independent fact-checkers, writing it "forms the basis to prevent the spread of large scale misinformation and disinformation" transparency.meta.com/sr/dsa-sra_r...
