Dr Antonis Kalogeropoulos (BSA Early Career Fellow; University of Liverpool) "Digital News Consumption in Greece"
Abstract: Greece is a global outlier in digital news consumption. Trust in legacy news organizations is very low while Greeks online rely heavily on alternative sources like social media for their news. Dr Kalogeropoulos will present qualitative and quantitative data that address how Greeks navigate the digital news landscape, their motivations for using social media to get news, as well as the ways Greek news organizations have adapted their news distribution strategies in the current media environment. This talk will further discuss the implications of digital news disruption in Greece and internationally.
