At #ona18 and can't wait to hear @zephoria on strategic amplification.

Accusing media of liberal bias is a stunt by media manipulators and it works, @zephoria tells #ona18

G'bless @zephoria for starting her keynote at #ona18 addressing the asymmetry of manipulation and accusations of media bias head-on.

"How did we get here? The stark reality is: We got played," @zephoria tells #ona18.

"Choosing what to amplify is not the same as curtailing someone's ability to speak." - @zephoria

Media manipulation strategy: 1. Create spectacle. 2. Frame that spectacle in key phrases to be used in search, etc. 3. Portray yourself as a victim. - @zephoria

The "crisis actors" spreaders didn't so much want to attack the victims but to troll (read: manipulate) media. - @zephoria

At #ona18, @zephoria is doing a brilliant job trying to tell journalists exactly how they are being manipulated and used. Will they hear her?

Yes: Democracy depends on media and tech companies understanding how they are being manipulated, @zephoria tells the journalists at #ona18.

You will only once again gain the trust of the American public when you again become part of the American fabric, @zephoria tells #ONA18 in a rousing endorsement of local journalism and local networks connecting journalists with citizens.

Media manipulators have figured out how to manipulate you into telling their story. This is the security reality of media now. So outsmart them, @zephoria advises #ona18.

"Were those of you reporting this term intending to open a portal into hell?" @zephoria challenges journalists who reported the hate term that motivated a mass murderer, doing his bidding in the end. #ONA18

"There is no need to give oxygen to a fringe group acting like a bully in a third-grade classroom." - @zephoria #ONA18

"You are not algorithms but you are also not neutral." - @zephoria to journalists at #ONA18

At #ona18, @zephoria just gave *the* critically important talk about journalism in the internet age. I will show it to every class of mine. I will link to the video when it is up and urge you to watch it and take all her challenges to heart.

"How do we think of journalism not as a competitive sport but as a process of knitting people together?" @zephoria asks journalists at #ona18. I plan to frame that quote in the classroom.

I am so, so proud that we support @zephoria's work at @datasociety via @NIINewmarkJ thanks to @MollydeAguiar
