My article about the importance of local news is now featured in @niemanlab.org!

Yes, national news outlets need support. But your local newsrooms need YOUR support.

"People who regularly follow local news are more likely to participate in politics, including voting in local elections, contacting a local public official, and attending a town hall meeting." Very interesting read about the current #localmedia landscape. www.niemanlab.org/2025/06/amer...

New at What Works: Americans still have faith in local news — but few are willing to pay for it. (Via @theconversation.com.)

I wrote about the importance of local news for @us.theconversation.com. Most Americans trust and find value in local news but far fewer are willing to actively support it.

PhD alum @jenniferhoewe.bsky.social is the lead author of "Political pets: The pawsitive effect of dogs in politicians’ social media posts." www.tandfonline.com/eprint/HZI24...

Five years ago, I decided to start working on a fun study about a trend I kept seeing on social media. Politicians were posting about their dogs! But does posting about dogs influence a political campaign? Our team answered that question with this paper. #commsky www.tandfonline.com/eprint/HZI24...
