This paper will investigate how Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann’s theory on public opinion, Spiral of Silence, can be used to assess the Facebook news feed as a political opinion source that actively shapes users’ perceptions of minority and majority opinion climates. The feedback loops created by the algorithm’s criteria influences users’ decisions to self-censor or express their political opinions with interpersonal connections and unfamiliar connections on the site.

  • Insularized Connectedness: Mobile Chat Applications and News Production
    Media and Communication (ISSN: 2183–2439) 2019, Volume 7, Issue 1, Pages 179–188 DOI: 10.17645/mac.v7i1.1802 Article Insularized Connectedness: Mobile Chat Applications and News Production Colin Agur Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Minnesota – Twin Cities, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA; E-Mail: [email protected] Submitted: 29 October 2018 | Accepted: 16 January 2019 | Published: 19 February 2019 Abstract Focusing on recent political unrest in Hong Kong, this article examines how mobile chat applications (e.g., WhatsApp, WeChat, LINE, Facebook Messenger and others) have permeated journalism. In Hong Kong, mobile chat apps have served as tools for foreign correspondents to follow stories, identify sources, and verify facts; they have also helped reporting teams manage large flows of multimedia information in real-time. To understand the institutional, technological, and cul- tural factors at play, this article draws on 34 interviews the author conducted with journalists who use mobile chat apps in their reporting. Building on the concept of media logic, the article explores technology-involved social interactions and their impact on media work, while acknowledging the agency of users and audiences within a cultural context. It argues that mobile chat apps have become hosts for a logic of connectedness and insularity in media work, and this has led to new forms of co-production in journalism.

  • Mark Zuckerberg Facebook, Inc
    HEARING BEFORE THE UNITED STATES SENATE COMMITTEE ON COMMERCE, SCIENCE, AND TRANSPORTATION October 28, 2020 Testimony of Mark Zuckerberg Facebook, Inc. I. Introduction Chairman Wicker, Ranking Member Cantwell, and members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity to be here today. Facebook’s mission is to give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together. Our products enable more than 3 billion people around the world to share ideas, offer support, and discuss important issues. We know we have a responsibility to make sure people using our products can do so safely, and we work hard to set and enforce policies that meet this goal. II. CDA Section 230’s Role in Giving People a Voice and Keeping Them Safe Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act is a foundational law that allows us to provide our products and services to users. At a high level, Section 230 does two things: • First, it encourages free expression. Without Section 230, platforms could potentially be held liable for everything people say. Platforms would likely censor more content to avoid legal risk and would be less likely to invest in technologies that enable people to express themselves in new ways. • Second, it allows platforms to moderate content. Without Section 230, platforms could face liability for doing even basic moderation, such as removing hate speech and harassment that impacts the safety and security of their communities. Thanks to Section 230, people have the freedom to use the internet to express themselves. At Facebook, this is one of our core principles.

  • Gaining an Edge with Edgerank
    Facebook Marketing Gaining an Edge with EdgeRank Gaining an Edge With EdgeRank from Awareness, Inc | Creators of the Social Marketing Hub @awarenessinc | awarenessnetworks.com Gaining an Edge With EdgeRank Social Media Optimization of Facebook’s EdgeRank Algorithm For successful Facebook marketing, the simple truth is that brands must dominate the News Feed. All the fans in the world won’t benefit you if your message isn’t getting in front of your customer’s eyeballs. The Facebook News Feed isn’t determined at random; Facebook has a secret formula to determine which pieces of content from which of your friends appears in your personalized feed. That secret formula is called EdgeRank. What exactly is EdgeRank? How can marketers use EdgeRank to ensure their content appears in the News Feed? Let’s examine this critical facet of how Facebook works. EdgeRank Defined EdgeRank is an algorithm for organizing content. It looks like this: The best way to think of EdgeRank is to compare it to another well known algorithm: the Google Algorithm. Most marketers know that when a user searches in Google, the Google Algorithm scours the internet to return what it thinks are the most relevant results relative to the search query. EdgeRank is designed to scour the updates of a user’s Facebook friends and return what it thinks are the most relevant results relative to the user’s interests. EdgeRank is critical to Facebook’s success. Facebook must ensure that when a user checks their News Feed they are presented with the updates they will find most relevant and interesting.
