I’m working on a collaborative paper that touches on some of the newish, “alternative” social media platforms, including things like Parler, MeWe, Gab, and Rumble. We are looking for reading (academic articles, white papers, works in progress, and news media) that addresses the politicization of social media platforms and the rise of these so-called alternative platforms, including the types of content that are seen as problematic/ that flourish. We definitely want to read broadly at this point, so any suggestions you have are welcome. I’m happy to create a list of recommendations and re-circulate that. Thanks! -Shannon Oltmann Shannon M.
