This news article “Drunk man helps emergency services search for himself” appeared on the website of a Flemish newspaper. Would you consider clicking on it? #ThesisThread 🧵1/
You may not, but it was recently one of their most read articles on the news website. It may not come as a surprise that these “most read lists” are often filled with the “softer news”, funny or bizarre articles rather than the harder, political or economic news. 2/
We don’t think about it that much, but our behavior on news websites is increasingly put into numbers by #analytics software. That is then aggregated into metrics like “clicks” or “time on page” that give an indication of popularity. But what are those numbers good for?📊3/

So much media chatter about #WomenVoters in #Election2020. Except, if (white, non-college educated) women vote in large numbers for #Biden, doesn't that mean the story is really about why (some) men still love Trump? A Sunday 🧵on gender & the vote. ⤵️ 1/9
To begin, @kdittmar gets it right in this @nytimes piece: "To characterize the women’s vote as if it stands for a single ideology or agenda would be too simplistic...We would rarely make the same characterization for men.” (Follow her.) 2/9

My piece in @SmithsonianMag makes a similar point: Clinton swept Black women, but narrowly lost white women; but w/in the group of white women, those who are educated, young and/or single broke for Clinton. Race & socioeconomic status matter. 3/9 smithsonianmag.com/history/how-ha…

With COVID-19, we’ve been thinking a lot about journals and the publication process.
This thread is about what academic journals & journal editors can do to ensure that women’s research gets the citations it deserves.
Citations and citation counts often matter. #CiteHerMonday
And we know that citation patterns can be gendered.

For instance, see this piece by @michelledion @JaneLSumner & @sbmitche

One of the ways #WomenAlsoKnowStuff works to improve political science for all is to encourage scholars to cite (and read!) work by women experts.

Journal editors can make a big difference to citation practices. How? Here are some ideas!
