Doing a PhD on the legal and social impacts of youtubers creating #journalism. My DMs are disabled.
"Echoes of White Australia still generate passionate debate in 21st century Australia at a time when the expressions of 'White Canada' and 'White New Zealand' have long been forgotten, and America's Chinese Exclusion Act has reverted to a subject of specialist enquiry" (p. 1).
Snackademics – I Saw It On The NewsTube I was on the radio this morning talking about legal impacts of youtubers creating public interest journalism (aka my PhD research). In case you missed it, click the link for the online version. www.2ser.com/snackademics... @2ser.bsky.social
Today I was lucky enough to be interviewed about my research by Danny at 2SER. @2ser.bsky.social #2SER #Radio @uts-cmt.bsky.social
The function of the public sphere is to ensure "the continued existence of the democratic political community" (p. 2). #Habermas #Democracy #PublicSphere Habermas, J. (2023), A New Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere and Deliberative Politics.
So it takes almost 16 days to travel from the south of France to Paris if you go by Ox cart, assuming you don't stop at all. #history #Rome #Itiner-e @tombrughmans.bsky.social www.itiner-e.org
Amazingly my first sole-author academic article has had over 5000 views in the first 6 months! I know views don't equal citations but still. Link to article below 😁 #PhD #Media #JournalismResearch @intellectbooks.bsky.social #AJR @friendlyjordies.bsky.social intellectdiscover.com/content/jour...
It is also cool that this week both Edward and myself are presenting in the same session at the Aus-NZ Comms conference. #AANZCA2025 @anderspucknielsen.dk @eddyhurc.bsky.social #PlatformJournalism #Newsfluencers
There are more than 24 journalism definitions in Australian statutes. If the misinformation bill had passed last year that would have added another 2! #Journalism #Law #MediaLaw #Journalist
So someone has finally read my article in Independent Australia. Glad they got a laugh out of it 😅 @independentaus.bsky.social #YouTube #youtuber #friendlyjordies #journalism #PlatformJournalism
"Today's efforts to make journalism more serious, more responsible, and, generally speaking, nicer, are misplaced" (Schudson, 2008, p. 50). #journalism #media #cafe
Studying internet things can be so doubt causing sometimes, especially when I don't screenshot literally everything lol. I included it in something I did in 2023, but you not remembering made me doubt my data 🥴 Thank goodness for the Wayback Machine!
Is friendlyjordies a journalist? Jordan Shanks says no. So I did some investigating to see if he is right or not. Research findings via link. @friendlyjordies.bsky.social #Journalism #Journalist intellectdiscover.com/content/jour...
Same event, different reporting. Why though? Is it just New media vs Old media? Looking at comments, it is clear audience members prefer one over the other. #journalism #USpol #Media #MemorialDay @meidastouch.com @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social @michaeljamesdavis.bsky.social @nytimes.com

Lots of different people complimented my clothing today. This doesn't normally happen to me 🤣 This shirt design is very very popular. Too bad it's sold out. They should make more of this style #Union #ACTU @sallymcmanus.bsky.social
Maybe. I'm quite a low level academic in the space. But what I read in the policy docs, white paper, etc it is not a doubling up. Though my main interest is on what journalism is rather than what regulation, unions, etc claim it is ☺️
It was great to be able to make it to the Melbourne dojo last night for some great training. #Aikido #Kokikai #KokikaiAikido #Melbourne
