We identify intended outcomes embedded in app design and contrast them with unintended outcomes emerging in practice. Analysis revealed that the design and promotional materials of the apps influence their use as a reinforcer of litigious mindsets and actions. This combination appears to change user behaviours, leading to communication becoming anticipatory and strategic with mixed outcomes.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148821094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study is framed within the context of the George Floyd protests in 2020 and 2021 as mainstream media outlets appropriated Black Excellence rhetoric in columns, listicles, and videos following this watershed moment. Analyses of popular press articles about Black influencers, discourse about race and labor on #BlackTumblr, influencer content on Instagram and YouTube, and interviews with Black influencers comprise the dataset. By leveraging intersectional platform affordances and racialized erotic capital, Black influencers subvert neoliberal and post-feminist logics undergirding digital labor by virtue of the racialized work they are expected to perform, challenging exceptionalist rhetoric. I argue that Black influencers’ uniquely racialized, gendered work contests the assumption that influencer labor is a natural outgrowth of neoliberal conditions.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"225 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148815532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on a sociosemiotic analysis of global advocacy campaigns (2017–2022), the analysis identifies three strategies, Visionary (“Feeling the Other”), Sensitive (“Feeling for Others”) and Reflexive (“Feeling with Others”), each operating through distinct affective and narrative logics. The argument advances a distinction between political and regulatory recognition. Political recognition acknowledges claims in their structural and collective dimension; regulatory recognition extends legitimacy only to claims aligned with the promotional regime’s affective and reputational logic. The evidence suggests that brand governance operates predominantly in this regulatory mode, producing a conditional visibility that privileges individualised emotional appeals over structural political demands. This study focuses on US and Western European promotional cultures; comparative research across other regions remains a necessary next step.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148768761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We contribute by examining how such usage shapes political knowledge during election campaigns. Given their partisan orientation, lack of professional verification, and often provocative style, alternative media are found to produce and circulate misinformation, even as their users are often politically engaged, active news consumers. We ask whether alternative media inform rather than misinform citizens during election campaigns. Adopting a two-dimensional conception of political knowledge, we examine both surveillance knowledge and confidence in that knowledge – along with misinformation understood as the combination of the two. Utilizing individual-level panel data from Norway, our findings suggest that alternative news use is not associated with being better or worse informed, but with being more confident in one’s political knowledge. We discuss how these effects may differ in more polarized or lower-quality information environments.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148768846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, we provide an analysis of the governance of these groups and how they develop a collective morality through both articulations with the celebrities’ mediation and with the logics of social justice. Using data collected from a digital ethnography of two popular celebrity snark spaces, we employ Critical Discourse Analysis to track the particular discursive repertoires and vernaculars which characterise snark across multiple platforms. We argue that despite the perceived ‘incivility’ of these online spaces, discourses of care, justice and solidarity often emerge which complicate existing narratives of these groups. Though participation in snarking collectives is often explained in pathologising or individualising narratives of anti-fandom, we demonstrate some of the reflexive work that happens in these spaces which sometimes ignites sociological discussions and frustrations at inequalities. We therefore conceptualise snark through the lens of a ‘tiny public’ that identifies and explores broader race and class injustice in contemporary society. Here, the prevailing discourses about celebrity subjects ‘failing upwards’ betrays an anger at elites who do not suffer the same material consequences at times of crisis; though many of these frustrations are misdirected back at the celebrity subject and manifest in a collective desire to see repercussions for the individual celebrity, rather than collective action aimed at the structures that make this failure possible, visible and even lucrative.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148768848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combining insights from a representative survey study of politicians in Denmark ( <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n</jats:italic> <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">=</jats:italic> 1233) with data on their observed social media usage (Facebook: 24,625 posts; Instagram: 13,019 posts), this study is the first to test the generalizability of this emerging evidence and advance our theoretical understanding of the conditions under which politicians’ social media usage is connected to stress. The study demonstrates a significant, positive correlation between politicians’ social media usage and self-reported stress symptoms and points to excessive usage as the primary explanation behind the association. Furthermore, exposure to online harassment is a crucial mediating factor in the association.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148717603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the last few years, various concepts have been developed in the interdisciplinary field of algorithm studies to understand how people make sense of these systems and interact with them – including mental models of algorithms, folk theories of algorithms, or algorithmic imaginaries. This theoretical article engages with the concept of the algorithmic imaginary in particular. It argues that the concept of the algorithmic imaginary occupies a unique position in literature, foregrounding questions of affect and emotion in human-algorithm interaction, and theorising the dynamics of sense-making about algorithms in such terms. Critically examining work that has explicitly applied and developed the concept, we synthesise the scholarship, offer an updated definition, and pose critical questions for future research, including on emergent artificial intelligence phenomena.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues in favour of an expanded definition of precarity and that precarity, as a generalised affective condition, results in a state of totalising fear (fear which relates, at once, to discrete objects as well as the world itself). In that context, this article advances the claim that scrolling can be understood as an affective attachment (of the kind outlined by Lauren Berlant), developed in response to totalising fear, and which enables the subject to suspend time and to escape from conscious experience of precarity. In establishing this conclusion, the article also explores how the form of scrolling engenders an absorbing, passive and essentially ‘blank’ experience of the world, and how the attainment of this state is an expression of a limited, precarious mode of agency.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"360 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Social media platforms provide parental “supervision tools” as a mechanism for balancing children’s autonomy with safeguards, promoting this function to parents to ensure safer digital practices for their children. This research adopts a constructivist framework to investigate the evolution and operationalisation of parental supervision across Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok. Utilising qualitative methodology, this study combines archival data from an ethnographic walkthrough conducted in 2024, simulating a child’s and parent’s account for each platform. The cross-platform comparison reveals how platforms construct parental responsibility through their discursive and interface supervision mechanisms, expressed through macro-narratives, meso-contexts, and micro-practices. In doing so, platforms shift responsibility for regulation to parents as the accountable supervisory actors, while ultimately also controlling the supervision practices of these parents through the affordances and constraints offered through supervision tools.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results show that joint explanations significantly improved users’ objective understanding of the RS but had no consistent direct effects on perceived understanding, trust, or attitudes toward the RS. Exploratory structural equation modeling revealed an indirect pathway in which explanations enhanced objective understanding, which increased perceived understanding, subsequently fostering greater trust and more positive attitudes. Moderation analyses showed limited evidence for AI competence conditioning explanation effects, with small benefits concentrated among users with higher AI knowledge. Together, these findings suggest that explanations in news RS are not universally effective: their effects appear to operate primarily through cognitive mechanisms, while competence-related differences remain limited and selective.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148698816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
