🧵 1/4

In some cases, the difference was substantial: education adverts using familiar language were clicked around five times more often than neutrally worded versions, even though both linked to the same reliable information.

New research by JooYoung Lee, Emily Booth and Marian-Andrei Rizoiuoiu tested whether factual information becomes more engaging when it is framed in language familiar to the communities it is trying to reach.

MISINFORMATION: #ischemia director @mansmarlind.bsky.social warns of #RussianBots #HybridWarfare - however, which one of these is #misinformation, and which is FACT? 🤔

AI is a marvelous tool, and it is very dangerous in the hands of a miscreant user. Those who profess hate and death are miscreants. They are using these tools skillfully.

“'Data-driven' economist says #breastfeeding doesn't matter.”
"Lactation consultants starve babies"

This is what #BreastfeedingDenialism looks like. Our new paper argues that addressing #misinformation and #CompassionateCare are NOT conflicting goals.

Breastfeeding Science Denialism: Unpacking a Hidden Harm
Bridget McGann Christina Raimondi Meghan B. Azad
In the digital age, misinformation about infant feeding threatens decades of public health efforts to revive breastfeeding.Increasingly sophisticated marketing exploits cultural knowledge gaps, serving commercial interests and exacerbating food insecurity from climate change and migration. Public health literature acknowledges that suboptimal breastfeeding rates are due to systemic failures, not personal ones. However, our social responsibility to parents includes promoting public literacy in infant feeding and breastfeeding and lactation science. Recognizing breastfeeding misinformation as science denialism unlocks field‐tested communication tools from domains long‐targeted by denialism, such as climate change and vaccines. We describe five breastfeeding denialism strategies that echo tactics historically used to manufacture doubt about scientific consensus (cut off)

My college Media teacher did a unit on Concentration of Ownership of the #Media. It seemed more theoretical than prophetic, but it was instructive. Now we have it, and by wealthy, #anti-democracy #Fascists.

#Murdoch in America has a VERY different message on #InterestRates than Murdoch in Australia.

Weird, given Murdoch has big investments in #RealEstate websites in both the USA & Oz.

The key distinction: criticism isn't necessarily the problem. Hostility is.

If we want people to keep correcting misinformation, we need healthier online environments.

Correcting misinformation takes more than knowing the facts.

New research finds that angry, high-arousal feedback increases emotional exhaustion—and exhaustion makes people more likely to avoid correcting misinformation in the future.
