New cross-country study out with @Hameleers_M. We show how negativity and misinformation are on average perceived to prevail in more than half (!) of all news, while misinformation is perceived the bigger threat doi.org/10.37016/mr-20…

Mooi artikel in De Correspondent over de mogelijke negatieve neveneffecten van aandacht voor misinformatie, deels gebaseerd op ons onderzoek @Hameleers_M @dscheykopp. Bedankt @mauritsmartijn!
