measuring media/compassion fatigue across languages and media systems
For those of you that focus on online media and media effects, I thought this collaboration with IRIN News assessing global media fatigue of the Nepal and Vanuatu disasters, across 65 languages and each country's media system, might be of particular interest, especially the queries and source code to provide the foundation for other analyses: http://newirin.irinnews.org/dataviz/2015/7/25/nepal-earthquake-three-months-... http://blog.gdeltproject.org/irin-news-the-nepal-earthquake-at-three-months-... http://blog.gdeltproject.org/towards-a-generalized-model-of-media-fatigue-va... While media fatigue has obviously been heavily explored over the decades, one of the results of the analyses above is that the two-week exponential falloff holds consistently across each country's media system and between the two disasters. If you scroll to the bottom of the post below, you will find all of the queries and source code to run your own media fatigue or other media effects analyses across the data, which I thought might of especial interest and use to many of you as a foundation for broader quantitative media analyses. http://blog.gdeltproject.org/irin-news-the-nepal-earthquake-at-three-months-... ~Kalev http://kalevleetaru.com http://blog.gdeltproject.org/
can you expand on the idea of compassion fatigue? On Tue, Jul 28, 2015 at 11:47 AM, kalev leetaru <kalev.leetaru5@gmail.com> wrote:
