SUMMARY:Academic breakfast with Erik Knudsen
DESCRIPTION:The SV-faculty invites all students and employees at UiB to attend Erik Knudsens presentation about news avoiders in Norway. \nHave you found yourself consciously avoiding news or specific news topics over the past year? For instance\, have you refrained from clicking on stories about the dire situations in Ukraine or Gaza? If so\, you’re not alone. New figures from the Media Survey 2024 reveal that a whopping 34 percent of Norwegians are classified as “news avoiders.” Is it a democratic issue that so many people are dodging the news? Should news avoiders feel guilty? Erik Knudsen doesn’t think so. He discusses his research on people’s selective media consumption and news avoidance\, citing results from the Media Survey 2024 recently presented at the Nordic Media Days. Knudsen will also offer insights from an ongoing MediaFutures study on whether so-called “constructive news” – solution-oriented news that emphasizes hope and possibilities over negativity – could serve as a kind of “antidote” to reduce news avoidance. \nErik Knudsen is an associate professor at the Department of Information and Media Studies and works as work package 1 leader in SFI MediaFutures.

SUMMARY:Political news analysis by YouTubers : Initial results from quantitative processing of a textual corpus
DESCRIPTION:MediaFutures Work Package 1 and The Network for culture\, inequality and democracy (KUD/CID) at Infomedia invite to a public lecture on the topic of alternative political analysis on YouTube\, given by Quentin Gilliotte\, Professeur Junior at Université Panthéon-Assas (Paris\, France) There will be time for a Q&A.     \nThe productions on digital platforms are becoming an increasingly significant source of information. Within this context\, a large number of actors on digital platforms offer analyses and commentary on political current events. Within the Francophone space\, we find video creators such as HugoDécrypte\, Tatiana Ventôse\, Usul\, and Gaspard G. These actors place themselves in opposition to traditional media (television\, radio) : they advocate for an “alternative” way of handling information\, whether in terms of the audience they target\, the topics they cover\, or the formats they use. How do these different actors address political current events? Considering both economic models and political positions\, what topics are mobilized? \nThe communication will proceed in two stages. Firstly\, I will present the method for constructing the corpus of selected channels through data extraction from the YouTube API\, utilizing network analysis tools. Secondly\, I will present a mapping of the topics addressed by these different video creators based on the automated textual analysis of a corpus of 8740 transcribed videos (representing all videos published by the selected actors between January and July 2023) using a topic modeling method (Latent Dirichlet Allocation).
