Call for an Advertising Boycott: Debate on the Limits of Political Influence
In May 2026, an Instagram video by SPD politician Saskia Esken caused a stir.
The reason: a podcast interview lasting several hours conducted by Ben Berndt (“Ungeskriptet”) with AfD politician Björn Höcke. Esken called on companies to reconsider their advertising placements on such platforms.Critics, including FDP politician Wolfgang Kubicki, viewed this as an infringement on freedom of the press.
Esken rejected the accusation of censorship: As a member of parliament, she had no authority to censor, but had merely provided information.The case highlights a recurring tension: legitimate political criticism versus economic pressure on the media. In addition, the Streisand effect kicked in—the interview gained additional reach as a result of the criticism.

The digital town square is getting a upgrade ito defend against synthetic reality. YouTube just announced the expansion of AI-assisted deepfake detection tools, specifically prioritizing politicians and journalists. This move acknowledges the truth that voices and faces can be cloned in seconds and we need more than just manual reporting to survive.
The system uses a combination of facial recognition and audio analysis to identify content that has been manipulated. While no tool is perfect, this is a major step toward protecting the integrity of public discourse. You should watch how these tools evolve, as the ability to verify what is human and what is synthetic will soon be the most valuable currency on the internet.
🧠 YouTube is expanding its detection algorithms to automatically flag synthetic likenesses.
⚡ The tool focuses on protecting individuals most likely to be targets of misinformation campaigns.
🎓 Content creators must now disclose when they use generative AI to depict real people.
🔍 This expansion is part of a broader industry push to secure the 2026 election cycle.https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/891678/youtube-is-expanding-its-ai-deepfake-detection-tool-to-politicians-and-journalists

Eroding the market’s hidden hand: toward a Post-Capitalist
media systemVictor Pickard
(Communication, Culture and Critique, 2025, 18, 282–284)
"Media-related problems facing democratic societies around the world today often stem from various kinds of market failures and structural limitations endemic to all capitalist media systems. Yet, the capitalist logics at the root of these problems largely escape critical analysis in communication research. Working against such “capitalist media realism,” this article begins to interrogate these logics and provides a preliminary framework for gradually eroding them in favor of a less capitalist and more democratic media system."

Quoted in a new Fix article on how publishers can respond to AI bots scraping journalistic content.
I argue that big outlets can negotiate deals, but smaller publishers are being left behind — and short-term tools like Offerwall or pay-per-crawl don’t solve the deeper structural issues.
Protecting journalism in the AI era requires fairness, accountability and stronger direct ties with readers.

👂 Hörempfehlung! Die aktuelle Ausgabe des österreichischen Medienmagazins #Doublecheck auf #Ö1
Die geleakten Papiere der blau-schwarzen Koalitionsverhandlungen offenbaren die geplanten Massnahmen gegen die öffentlich-rechtlichen #Medien und den #Journalismus in #Österreich
Laut den Plänen hätten "parteipolitische Medienkanäle staatliche Medienförderung bekommen sollen & Schwächung des Investigativjournalismus durch das Zitierverbot". -

#MediaPolicy #CommunicationGovernance #TechnologyPolicy #MediaStudies: "The Global Media Policy Working Group is pleased to announce the publication of Global Communication Governance at the crossroads, the 20th title in the Palgrave/IAMCR book series Global Transformations in Media and Communication Research. Edited by Claudia Padovani, Véronique Wavre, Arne Hintz, Gerard Goggin and Petros Iosifidis.
The collection celebrates 20+ years of activity of the Working Group on Global Media Policy, addressing current challenges, trends and transformations in global communication governance. Exploring changes in the actors, issues, values and contexts of media and communications, it investigates the crossroads that media policy is facing and offers visions for the future. A diverse range of scholars and expert practitioners discuss what regulatory reforms and governing mechanisms are required to advance democratic participation and fundamental rights in platform societies.
Organized around five sections, the volume considers the geopolitics of emerging communication orders; the changing roles of actors and stakeholders; the challenge of embedding rights and values in regulatory arrangements; the intersection of technology and policy; and the need to rethink epistemologies and methodologies for researching this field.
Contributions from different disciplines and cultural backgrounds include provocative think pieces and longer analyses. All chapters are grounded in historically-aware understandings of contemporary transformations, while anticipating dynamics of our communication futures."

#Media #MediaPolicy #Journalism #News #PublicService #MarketFailure: "Amid the retreat of local journalism and the resulting emergence of “news deserts,” where communities lack authentic and civically accountable sources of news, it is important to not only seek new revenue streams for news organizations but also to consider how financial resources and institutional structures secure journalistic autonomy and an abiding dedication to public service. Surveying initiatives to bolster local reporting in multiple countries, this study finds that such efforts frequently rest on an unstated optimism that market failures can be corrected and that new, sustainable business models ultimately will solve the journalism crisis. In contrast to these stopgap interventions, initiatives based on public service media principles found in the world's healthiest democracies—such as providing information across all social groups and fostering civic engagement—are better positioned to rebuild local systems in which news media are structured as enduring social institutions with crucial roles to play in democratic processes."
