Thanks for presenting our work ❤️ super cool to see this in out in the world!

We are very happy to have you on board!

Eine AfD-Regierung wäre ein Sicherheitsrisiko. Expert*innen warnen: Ein AfD-Innenminister hätte Zugriff auf sensible Informationen des Verfassungsschutzes, wie verdeckte Ermittler*innen und geheime Quellen, könnte Ermittlungen gegen Rechtsextreme ausbremsen und so die nationale Sicherheit gefährden.

Creating a study program is an exciting, partially frightening and absolutely intense exercise- super happy to see that all the hard work paid out, and very much looking forwards to implemente this over the next year!

Full #ICA26 circle - @Anne Clausen presents her first dissertation study on hate speech against sexual and gender minorities in the very last session on the last day - if you are already on a plane or otherwise gone - read more about her work open access here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Hi #ica26, interested in computational approaches and media use & effects? This is for you: 📢 CfP CCR Special Issue: From normalization to next frontiers: Media use & effects in the computational era. 🗓Abstracts due: Oct 16 journal.computationalcommunication.org/announcement... @icacm.bsky.social

Day 3 of #ICA2026 - and we are talking about hate and counterspeech across the world. I was super happy to present a study conducted with Cathy Buerger, Magdalena Obermaier and Joshua Garland in which we interviewed counterspeakers in 14 countries and on 3 countries.

In his #ICA26 address @Thomas Hanitzsch gives an impressive statement calling for the defense of academic freedom, sharing his personal experience from growing up in an authoritarian state, and highlighting the value for academic freedom back then and the threat to it today

#ICA27 will take place from the 3-7.6 2027 in Glasgow. Topic will be "centering the human - communication in an age of uncertainty"

#ICA26 awards time at the presidential address- congratulations to all winners and @adrianmeier.bsky.social well deserved! Congratulations 🎊

In the second panel of day 2 on #ICA26 @nielsmede.bsky.social presents his @ddc-sdu.bsky.social * TrygFonden study in which we looked at science-related harassment- and the role of counterspeech for how bystanders perceive such attacks in 🇩🇰🇩🇪🇺🇲🇬🇧

This year's #ICA26 #ICA_CAT reception is Sun 7 Jun at 6pm in CTICC Ballroom West (CTICC1, Lev 1). Come to meet our community and celebrate achievements.

#ICA26 day 2 kicks off for me with larissa leonhard presenting our study on the effects of journalist class visits organised by the amazing @liedetectors.bsky.social on childrens/adolescents dealing with misinformation

#ica2026 day 1 has started with a great meeting - and now the actual scientific program starts with me presenting @hdschulze.bsky.social and my work on ethics in alternative news - and how that might be relevant also for games research

Very excited to welcome @claesdevreese.bsky.social's other home, the stellar @aimediademlab.bsky.social at @ddc-sdu.bsky.social today to talk about some of the big questions around #AI, #media, #democracy. In the spirit of both centers, the work of the early career scholars is in focal attention.

Also relevant: what really works is conflict- so party leaders also use each other, its like McDonald's vs Burger King - you get ppl to want a burger and choose between the two brands, instead of thinking about food in general.

Super interesting insight also also: was the Danish election a kind of test for AI in elections? And what can we learn from the unique Danish case? More research needed here;-)

My core learnings from today's election event- [1]established actors and routines become brittle, candidates have to become more influencer-ish and coordinated engagement becomes relwvant to rwplace adds [2] AI is here to stay - if we like it or not [3] No one's home elections will look like in 2030

DDC in Copenhagen today... For the official launch of the DDC 2016 Danish Election Report. Featuring a panel with journalists, researchers & party communication professionals. Moderated by @jolukito.bsky.social Huge tak to @manuelmenke.bsky.social & the University of Copenhagen for hosting us!

Great to see our Danish Election Report out in the wild. Panel now discussing the use of Gen AI (in an ethical manner) during the election campaigns. Seems that audiences are very critical. "But of course we use it." And when Humor helps... Very insightful perspectives from practitioners.

@ddc-sdu.bsky.social (here @jolukito.bsky.social and KU (here @manuelmenke.bsky.social) join forces to day to take a deep look into the machine room of the Danish election campaign 2026

DDC RESEARCH RETREAT (Spring edition) We've returned to Nyborg to meet as a group of DDC scholars and fellows (plus invited guests) to spend 2 days with updates on our projects and deliberate on future pathways. Thread below⤵️

In todays' @ddc-sdu.bsky.social retreat, we get an update on the projects currently running at the DDC - with insights into how Danes perceive and use AI by @Therese Waalen Sandberg, impact DAOS by @Giorgia Sampo, AI in the news ecosystem by @lyngemoller.bsky.social...

This years guest speaker is the amazing @snurb.info from @qutdmrc.bsky.social - showing his amazing work on "exploring destructive polarisation" - mapping social media debates about the voice referendum in 🇦🇺.

In the second part of the program our new @ddc-sdu.bsky.social member @Lukas Galke Poech gives insights into his super cool work on neural ecosystems and the AI-agent future - where artificial and human agents increasingly interact with each other - looking at the risks that come with that

The first session of the @ddc-sdu.bsky.social retreat starts with a session devoted to our fantastic TrygFonden Fellows - with Esben Seerup, Heidi Røsok-Dahl, Lucas Braun, Søren Schulz-Hansen, Timme Bisgaard Munk, Lea Hellmüller,

@claesdevreese.bsky.social kicks off the @ddc-sdu.bsky.social retreat- with the largest group of fellows ever and the best view so far

Today @leahellmueller.bsky.social presents her fascinating work on comparative journalism - her work with @UN-woman on digital violence and her @ddc-sdu.bsky.social trygfonden project that builds upon this work - very much looking forwards to this!

HVILKE DIGITALE PLATFORME FØRER DANSKE POLITIKERE KAMPAGNER PÅ? Ved hjælp af data indsamlet af Troels Runge (@runello.bsky.social) kan vi undersøge, hvilke digitale platforme der i øjeblikket bruges af kandidater fra de forskellige danske partier i det igangværende folketingsvalg.

In the second panel of today, first @andre-k-rodarte.bsky.social and I presented first insights from a recent project studying (1) the susceptibility to misinformation across the complex system through which misinformation flows (www.nature.com/articles/s44...)

In the first talk of todays' afternoon - @jolukito.bsky.social presents insights into her work on conspirational signifiers among politicians in the US - you can read more about her fascinating work, for example here: doi.org/10.1080/1058...

Very excited to listen to @jesperstromback.bsky.social kicking-off a highly promising @ddc-sdu.bsky.social mini-symposium on threats to democratic integrity - and how to foster democratic resilience. What a great way to spend a Thursday :-)
