Screenshot of an academic article titled “Audience expectations of journalism: What’s politics got to do with it?” published in the journal Journalism (Volume 23, Issue 8, August 2022, pages 1682–1699, SAGE Journals). Authors: Andreas Riedl and Jakob-Moritz Eberl. The abstract explains that the study investigates what audiences expect from journalism and how political attitudes influence those expectations. Using online survey data from both audiences (n = 2,775) and journalists (n = 818) in Austria, the study compares audience expectations with journalists’ own role conceptions. It applies multivariate analyses to explore the influence of media use and political orientations. Findings reveal both similarities and discrepancies between citizens’ and journalists’ perceptions of journalism’s functions, highlighting that political attitudes, alongside media use, significantly shape audience expectations. https://doi.org/10.1177/1464884920976422

Screenshot of a University of Vienna webpage titled “Audience Expectations of Coronavirus Reporting: From Watchdog to Lapdog?” published on May 18, 2020, as part of the Corona-Blog of the Vienna Center for Electoral Research (VieCER). The text summarizes findings from a study by Jakob-Moritz Eberl, Andreas Riedl, and Noelle S. Lebernegg based on the Austrian Corona Panel Project. Key results are highlighted in blue boxes: – Audience expectations of coronavirus reporting are generally high, with over 60% rating all nine journalistic roles as “very” or “extremely important.” – The Fact Checker role is valued the most (82% of respondents). – The Watchdog role—focused on critique and control—is considered the least important. – Perceptions of journalism depend strongly on satisfaction with the federal government: dissatisfied respondents prioritize the Watchdog role, while satisfied ones favor the Collaborator role that supports government measures. The accompanying text discusses journalism’s democratic functions, referencing the watchdog role and how citizens’ trust in government affects their expectations of journalistic reporting. The right sidebar lists sections for the Austrian Corona Panel Project, including “Overview by topic,” “Dashboard,” and “Austrian National Election Study (AUTNES).” Contact information and a note about the Corona-Blog’s focus on panel survey results related to the COVID-19 crisis appear below.

I’m really happy to see this published – it builds on two earlier collaborations between @andreasriedl.bsky.social and me. Huge thanks to @clmron.bsky.social and @danielwiesner.bsky.social for taking the lead on this one! 12/end

Not every day your name is in a book 😋 Thrilled to be part of this #OA collection addressing challenges to communicating science w/ @edoardoanziano.bsky.social. We analyzed news articles about glyphosate to see how the carcinogenic pesticide was construed across different dimensions. Have a look!

Just out! @markuswagner.bsky.social & I look at COVID vaccination identities in Austria. We show that positive social identities & negative out-group stereotyping developed around support or opposition to the vaccines: opinion-based affective polarization at work.
