Ready for the @roskildeuni.bsky.social watch party for the global launch of the @reutersinstitute.bsky.social Digital News Report 2026. My good colleagues Kim Schrøder, Mark Blach-Ørsten, and Mads K. Eberholst have once again done the Danish part of this global study.
I have good reasons for not being at #ICA26, yet my #RunningWithPresidents FOMO is real, nonetheless. But I ran with you in spirit this morning, even though Solrød Strand sure isn't Cape Town...
Never meet you heroes, they say. Well, about that... Yesterday, I met @coachbennett.bsky.social at the Copenhagen Marathon #CPH42 expo!!! I am truly happy for meeting one of my heroes, and grateful. This was a surprisingly emotional moment for me. Thank you, Coach.
[DK, off-topic] Der er 19.512 personer i Danmark, som har sclerose. Så her i maj løber jeg 195,12 km. for at samle 1.951,20 kr. ind til @scleroseforeningen.bsky.social. Som pårørende ved jeg, at det gør en forskel. Link til indsamling: www.scleroseforeningen.dk/yougo/indsam...

@martinkroeger.dk En bekendt på Mastodon (hvor du vist ikke er..?) har et Aula-spørgsmål. Jeg håber, det er ok, at jeg lige gen-stiller spørgsmålet her og direkte til dig - for du er den mest superbruger-agtige person, jeg endnu har mødt. Brug kun tid på det, hvis du rent faktisk har tid!
[off-topic] At 7:00pm, @huskmitnavn.bsky.social put a new piece of art up for sale. At 7:04pm, all 100 copies were sold.
Poll: - 60 % of Danes see USA as an opponent - 17 % as an ally - 20 % don't know - 3 % don't want to answer (n = 1,053 adult Danes, representative sample) The 60 % go across all demographics. So there's that...
Overall conclusion: *a lot* of "information disorder" stuff goes on in the online public sphere. But that does not mean that what we see is a full-out information disorder, and it should not be confused with other types of protest, activism, contestation, and public participation.
In Copenhagen, wrapping-up 5+ years of research, @evamayerhoeffer.bsky.social opens the AlterPublics symposium: "Safeguarding the digital public sphere".
Time for mulled wine, a nice aged brie, roaring fireplace, you know what I'm saying. Happy Holidays, everyone.

If anyone wants to buy the 28+ extra variations of "The Institutional Development of Podcasting", just let me know. I'll even throw in some nice countdowns on my website if that helps. www.routledge.com/The-Institut...
My local library has an entire section where it promotes banned books (e.g., The Satanic Verses, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, the Harry Potter series, and Gender Queer). It's part of a week-long campaign for freedom of speech. But I hope they keep it up permanently. Read a book. Join the resistance.
