The media world on Twitter: Short takes on complex issues

I’m spending most of my time right now trying to complete the eighth edition of Mass Communication: Living in a Media World for my publisher Sage.  I’ve been blessed with some friends who have been kind enough to write guest blog posts on some recent, timely issues. There’s so much I’d like to be writing about right now, and so little time.  So without further ado, here’s a Twitter-eye’s view of what’s going on in media right now.


Net neutrality and the arguments in favor of it seem like a pretty esoteric and obscure topic until our media giants start explaining the consequences of it through their corporate policies:


Is there any future for the movie theater chains in the age of COVID19? AMC, America’s biggest theater chain, isn’t so sure.


Who’s controlling the media these days? Looking at the front pages from the  nation’s biggest newspaper chain, it doesn’t look much like liberals…


NPR’s Mary Louise Kelly is packing body armor to go cover protests in Atlanta. Probably a good call.


And finally, the Canadian prime minister’s very loud moment of silence.
