  • Pennsylvania-News-Integrity-Report.Pdf
    1 Local journalism faces a wide range of threats in 2021—from a disrupted business model to competition from monopolistic technology platforms to industry-wide battles over consolidation and ownership. To address these existential threats, the industry—with encouragement and support from nonprofit groups like The Lenfest Institute—is working hard to come up with solutions. But even as publishers work to overcome these challenges, local journalism may face an even more severe long-term imperative: Preserving trust from readers. Americans trust local news substantially more than national news sources, according to data from the Knight Foundation, the World Economic Forum, and the Pew Research Center. But a variety of mis- and disinformation forces are simultaneously exploiting and undermining that trust. Moreover, as trustworthy media sources struggle to compete digitally, many of the practices that built deep trust in media over decades in print, television and radio formats may not transfer easily to digital formats without a specific effort to do so. In this , we examine the issue of trust and integrity for media coverage in and about Pennsylvania. The report utilizes trust ratings and reporting from NewsGuard, data about social media engagement from NewsWhip, and resources collated from NewsGuard, The Lenfest Institute, and other organizations to answer three key questions: • What is the current state of media trust as it relates to publications in Pennsylvania or covering Pennsylvania news? • What are the major threats to trust in local news in Pennsylvania? • What can Pennsylvania publishers do to improve trust among readers, viewers, or listeners? This report was prepared by NewsGuard, a company that deploys journalists to rate the credibility and transparency practices of thousands of news organizations worldwide, flagging misinformation sources and narratives in the process.

  • BOTS and AD FRAUD in the US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION 2020 Campaigns, Andinterviewswithcampaignexperts
    BOTS AND AD FRAUD IN THE US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION 2020 INTRODUCTION 13% OF 2020 DIGITAL CAMPAIGN SPEND SET TO BE HIJACKED BY AD FRAUD In this report, we show that 13% of US digital campaign spend will be lost to ad fraud. The high levels of ad fraud mean in effect that millions of digital political messages aimed at voters are being consumed by bots (that cannot vote). This will see at least $377 million of digital campaign spend lost to ad fraud in the 2020 Presidential election. This report sets out the challenge of ad fraud in the 2020 Presidential election, using the latest economic analysis, data from campaigns, and interviews with campaign experts. BOTS AND AD FRAUD IN THE US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION 2020 THE US PRESIDENTIAL AD FRAUD IN AND BOTS 2 THE RISE OF US DIGITAL CAMPAIGN SPENDING REACHES $2.9 BILLION IN 2020 The motivation for fraudsters to use bots to hijack digital campaign spending comes as online campaigns reaches record levels. In short, fraudsters follow the money. Spend on digital ads in the US election will reach a record level in 2020, estimated between $1.3 billion and $2.9 billion1. This is up from $0.4 billion in the 2016 election. It marks the continuing rise of digital as central to US political campaigns, since President Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe heralded digital as the deciding factor in the election 12 years ago. The impact of digital advertising is decisive. It has been demonstrated that 65% of U.S. adults turn to digital channels to gather information about the election.

  • Mis- and Disinformation Online: a Taxonomy of Solutions
    FACULTAD DE COMUNICACIÓN Departamento de Marketing y Empresas de Comunicación Mis- and Disinformation online: a Taxonomy of Solutions TESIS DOCTORAL Autora: Anya Stiglitz Director: Ángel Arrese Pamplona, 2020 2 To my parents and my husband 3 4 Acknowledgements A dissertation does not get written without an enormous amount of support and help. There are dozens of colleagues, friends, students, who generously gave their time by reading sections and commenting, recommending readings, arguing with me, sharing their ideas or even giving practical advice about how to get to the finish line. Some who helped are people I’ve known for years and some I met over email and offered to look at sections even though we had never met in person. I am grateful to all. Despite being busy with her own studies, Chloe Oldham assisted with research and handled the citations even as the Covid 19 pandemic got under way and we were quarantined together for six weeks. In that same period, and before, Michael Schudson managed to read several chapters, point out omissions and give me a list of readings. From the first, Schudson, Susanna Narotzky and Richard John encouraged me to write a dissertation and gave me solid, practical advice about how to do it. Andie Tucher graciously read sections and sent detailed comments even as she was racing to finish her own book. Hawley Johnson sent endless references and ideas and useful articles. My advisor, Ángel Arrese, lived up to his reputation for being smart, insightful and kind. His commitment to his students is unparalleled, his comments always on point and his care and attention remarkable.
