These inconsistencies in how safety violations are managed prompted the author(s) to perform a two-stage analysis of Twitch’s platform governance strategies to understand the relationship between platform governance and androcentric hegemony. The first stage included an inductive thematic analysis of ToS and CG documents, leading to the second analysis of two case studies that specify inconsistencies in policy enforcement dependent on opaque contextual exceptions. Ultimately, the authors provide evidence of contextual exceptions for safety, edgy humor, attire, and nudity which demonstrate how Twitch’s inconsistent governance reifies androcentric hegemony that benefits all men, rather than geek masculinity that largely prioritizes white men.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147649199","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}

In combination, these three create what we call <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">mythologies of memetic misogyny</jats:italic> , that is, gendered socio-cultural and socio-political narratives that present misogynistic ideas as if they were natural, universal and timeless gendered truths, often going unnoticed because of the volatile, polysemous and polycontextual nature of memes.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147649156","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 address this gap by theorizing visual space-making as the coordinated use of visual cues into reproducible, platform-legible visual configurations that create recognizable “places” of belonging and authority within networked counterpublics. We employ visual clustering of video frames and topic modeling of text to identify recurring patterns in STEM-related TikTok content and examine their relationship with audience engagement. Results show that identity-oriented visuals are more prevalent than expertise-oriented visuals but applied differently across content topics. Identity-oriented visuals are more likely to be associated with higher comment rates, whereas expertise-oriented visuals are associated with higher share rates. Results suggest implications for balancing identity and expertise self-presentation in digital spaces for women in STEM.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147641403","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}

Using survey data in India, we find that frequent political use of social media is associated with online harassment, especially among religious minorities and most intensely among minority women. Although political social media use alone does not heighten perceived political costs, these costs increase indirectly through experiences of harassment. Further probing reveals that this indirect effect is more substantial for religious minorities, with no significant gender differences. These results highlight how online political engagement is not experienced equally, as identity-based vulnerabilities amplify the emotional and psychological burdens of political engagement. Ultimately, rather than serving as inclusive public spheres, social media platforms reproduce existing offline hierarchies, placing the heaviest burdens of visibility on marginalized groups.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147635992","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}

While professional influencers often dominate digital religious spaces, everyday influencers, lacking formal religious authority yet embedded in close peer networks, play a crucial role in shaping religious practice. Drawing on 40 in‑depth semi‑structured interviews conducted between November 2024 and February 2025 in Egypt, Morocco, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, this article engages Campbell’s framework of networked religion as a point of dialogue rather than a fixed model. We propose the concept of liquid authority to explain how religious credibility emerges through trust, relational proximity, and algorithmic visibility in digital contexts. Findings show that social media complements rather than replaces traditional religious practice. While formal scholars remain central to institutional authority, algorithmically mediated and peer‑embedded forms of authority increasingly shape lived religious practice.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"195 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147635825","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 article reframes the problem of misinformation and examines the implications of this shift for interventions against misinformation. It advances five arguments that challenge common narratives about misinformation and invite us to rethink both the problem and its solutions. For instance, exposure to misinformation is lower than often believed, people are less gullible than commonly assumed, and misinformation often reflects, rather than causes, underlying sociopolitical issues. These insights point toward strategies that address the root causes of the problem rather than surface symptoms. Key shifts include focusing on the demand for misinformation, fostering trust in reliable sources, and strengthening democratic institutions. Combating misinformation effectively requires a clear understanding of the problem and a break with popular misconceptions about it.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147598587","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 used a multimodal critical discourse analysis of BWE posts to evaluate how these media construct Black womanhood and their intimate labor in the context of interracial relationships. The findings show that, through digital racework, the BWE trend constitutes a set of replicable controlling images that commodify Black women’s intimate labor while rendering it invisible. Although Black women’s influence on their husbands is celebrated, most social media users constructed the BWE as a “natural” outcome of healthy interracial love, a non-market activity expected from Black women. These findings reflect the contradictions at the foundation of racial heteropatriarchal capitalist systems in the information age, wherein white men and others seek after, symbolically celebrate, and monetize the labor of racialized women while denying its economic value.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147598586","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}

Using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modelling and diversity indices on more than 220,000 articles from 22 national, regional, local and niche outlets, it compares content published on proprietary websites with that on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. The findings reveal a ‘flattening’ of the news agenda on social media. While distinctions between news outlet types remain clear online, they largely disappear on social media, where engagement-driven logics promote soft topics. The effect is strongest for local outlets, whose civic and community-oriented reporting gives way to sports, human interest and entertainment news. Ownership explains little once editorial type is considered. The study demonstrates how platformisation erodes local journalism’s distinctiveness and challenges media policies designed to safeguard diversity and democratic pluralism in the digital public sphere.","PeriodicalId":19149,"journal":{"name":"New Media & Society","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147586634","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}
