Our paper (with @wajeeha__ahmad , @erikbryn, and Chuck Eeseley) on the role of advertisers and platforms in monetizing misinformation is now published in @Nature! See @erikbryn's thread below and link to the paper here: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
It's great to see this research with @wajeeha__ahmad, @Ananya_Sen_ and Chuck Eesley work published in @Nature today. We find that most misinformation is funded by advertising but most advertisers don't even know they're funding it!

I'm excited to share the first paper from my PhD work published today in Nature. We study how misinformation is financially sustained and the role that companies and platforms play in financing it. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Ever wondered about the intricate dynamics between UGC and professionally developed content on online platforms? Using data from local news our findings reveal when and where content from citizen journalists and professional journalists might be complements or substitutes.

We use natural language processing to identify different types of content and show how these benefit differently from engaging users. Thus, we can provide evidence for Allan Afuah & Christopher Tucci (2012)'s conceptualization of "Crowdsourcing as a solution to distant search".

Faculty hiring committees: you reallly gotta officially reject applicants more often. Just a quick email! This nonsense of ~60% of positions *never* contacting applicants is absurd and unhealthy. Honestly cannot wrap my head around this being the institutional norm in academia.
