I describe these changes through a theoretical analysis of the economic structure of the industry and explore the implications for scholars of online media and politics. The crux of my argument is that social media simultaneously serves as a distribution platform and reputation builder, as social recommendations take the place of expensive investments in high-quality journalism. This development rendered crucial portions of previous models of the market for news inaccurate due to the declining importance of firm reputation.

  • Law Enforcement Agencies Embrace the Social Media Lifestyle
    Law Enforcement Agencies Embrace the Social Media Lifestyle Todd R. English Abstract The purpose of this research paper was to determine if Florida Sheriff’s Offices have embraced the use of social media as a way to interact with their communities. All sixty-seven (67) counties in Florida were surveyed. The data illustrates the frequency of agencies using social media and whether social media use for community outreach has been successful. This paper also offers insight into the progressive world of social media and makes suggestions for how law enforcement agencies can become involved in social media and use it to improve their relationship with the public. Introduction The advancement of social media and its effects on the daily routines of our society is evolving daily. Many people have chosen to live their lives glued intently to the updates and information received from social media. We now see that people of all ages and organizations of all types are using social media like never before. The International Association of Chiefs of Police defines social media as “a category of Internet-based resources that integrate user-generated content and user participation” (IACP National Law Enforcement Policy Center, 2010, p.1). Experian Marketing Services in their 2013 Digital Marketer Report defines social media as including everything from photo and video sharing sites to social and professional networks, to online forums and more. In a typical month, three-quarters of all online adults (76 percent) say they have visited a social networking site like Facebook or Twitter, and 70 percent visited photo or video sharing sites like Flickr and YouTube (Experian Marketing Services, 2013).

  • False, Misleading, Clickbait-Y, And/Or Satirical “News” Sources
    False, Misleading, Clickbait-y, and/or Satirical “News” Sources Tips for analyzing news sources: ● Avoid websites that end in “lo” ex: Newslo. These sites take pieces of accurate information and then packaging that information with other false or misleading “facts” (sometimes for the purposes of satire or comedy). ● Watch out for common news websites that end in “.com.co” as they are often fake versions of real news sources (remember: this is also the domain for Colombia!) ● Watch out if known/reputable news sites are not also reporting on the story. Sometimes lack of coverage is the result of corporate media bias and other factors, but there should typically be more than one source reporting on a topic or event. ● Odd domain names generally equal odd and rarely truthful news. ● Lack of author attribution may, but not always, signify that the news story is suspect and requires verification. ● Some news organizations are also letting bloggers post under the banner of particular news brands; however, many of these posts do not go through the same editing process (ex: BuzzFeed Community Posts, Kinja blogs, Forbes blogs). ​ ​ ● Check the “About Us” tab on websites or look up the website on Snopes or Wikipedia for more information about the source. ● Bad web design and use of ALL CAPS can also be a sign that the source you’re looking at should be verified and/or read in conjunction with other sources. ● If the story makes you REALLY ANGRY it’s probably a good idea to keep reading about the topic via other sources to make sure the story you read wasn’t purposefully trying to make you angry (with potentially misleading or false information) in order to generate shares and ad revenue.

    The Good, the Bad and the Bait: Detecting and Characterizing Clickbait on YouTube Savvas Zannettou, Sotirios Chatzis, Kostantinos Papadamou, Michael Sirivianos Department of Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering and Informatics Cyprus University of Technology Limassol, Cyprus [email protected], {sotirios.chatzis,michael.sirivianos}@cut.ac.cy, [email protected] Abstract—The use of deceptive techniques in user-generated video portals is ubiquitous. Unscrupulous uploaders deliberately mislabel video descriptors aiming at increasing their views and subsequently their ad revenue. This problem, usually referred to as "clickbait," may severely undermine user experience. In this work, we study the clickbait problem on YouTube by collecting metadata for 206k videos. To address it, we devise a deep learning model based on variational autoencoders that supports Fig. 1: Comments that were found in clickbait videos.

    Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies, 2018, 8(4), 293-307 Amazing! Two Graduate Students Wrote About Stupid Internet Stuff and Got Away with It! (Page 10 Will Blow Your Mind!) Zachary Sheldon, M.A. Texas A&M University, USA 0000-0003-3812-2882 [email protected] Max Romanowski, M.A. Baylor University, USA 0000-0002-5159-9370 [email protected] ARTICLE INFO Received: 28 August 2018 Accepted: 25 October 2018 Published: 12 November 2018 DOI: https://doi.org/10.12973/ojcmt/3953 ABSTRACT This article examines new forms of narrative in the internet age through examining the website ClickHole. Through parodying and satirizing sites like BuzzFeed, ClickHole (an offshoot of the famous parody entity The Onion) thrives on the creation and dissemination of absurd headlines and accompanying stories. These not only commenting widely on cultural obsessions with things like pop culture figures and social causes, but also point to an innovative take on the place and form of narrative in the age of the internet. Keywords: ClickHole, BuzzFeed, internet culture, satire, new media, storytelling INTRODUCTION Founded in 2014 as an offshoot of popular satire The Onion, ClickHole is a “website with content unabashedly meant to pander, mislead and ultimately go viral” (Greenberg, 2014). Begun as The Onion was ceasing its print publication, ClickHole is a phenomenon entirely of the internet, created to comment on “the viral, click bait culture that’s made BuzzFeed and Upworthy thrive” (Greenberg, 2014). But the site has not just stopped there. Though initially conceived as an explicit parody and satire of the headlines and stories found on sites like BuzzFeed, ClickHole has evolved to stand on its own as a unique, pure artifact of internet culture.
