If you’re a communication or media studies scholar migrating to Mastodon, I recommend you check out the #commodon, #mediaStudies, and #academicChatter hashtags, join the @communicationscholars and @academicchatter groups (by following said accounts), and add your name to the directory of comm scholars I administer through the @commodon account. Welcome!

Reposting my #introduction, since I'm seeing a lot of fresh faces recently. I'm an associate professor at UMass Amherst, where I teach about #journalism and #MediaIndustries. My research focuses on media distribution and, occasionally, dysfunction in the adtech industry.
I also co-edit a book series on the civic impacts of media distribution for The MIT Press. Feel free to hit me up if you're working on a relevant project!

🛢️ 🍌 A nice review of #OilBeach has come in from Choice (American Library Association):
"harbors are regions of complex and global interactions between humans and their environment, complicating #biodiversity #conservation and restoration efforts... Highly recommended."

Announcement about the list of comm & media scholars I've been maintaining with @bethanyklein: The Google Doc will continue to be maintained, but I’m also setting up a new version of the list compatible with the discovery tools that already allow folks to browse and search other lists of academics on Mastodon. Scholars need to opt into the new list to be included and can do so by following the handle @commodon.
