Each year, we ask some of the smartest people in journalism and media what they think is coming in the next 12 months. Now you can follow this year's Nieman Lab Predictors to keep up with their insights in 2025: bsky.app/starter-pack...

So, I created a starter pack of Minnesota journalists. It's missing a lot of people, so let me know if I should add you! go.bsky.app/PPf9kfd

For my @niemanlab.org prediction about what will happen to journalism in 2025, I put the question to ChatGPT and got a fairly good summary of past Nieman Lab predictions. One glaring omission: any mention of Donald Trump. www.niemanlab.org/2024/12/an-a...

#UMNProud to see Associate Professor Valerie Belair-Gagnon featured in Nieman Lab's predictions for 2025.
