Political Communication departments please when you are writing your recruitment ads and planning your futures can you try and keep a little open minded? Always you specify scholars who use quantitative methods, data analytics and surveys focused on understanding public 1/

makes them tick A LOT already… because we are visible - while powerful people and systems they use to control are not in focus and remain under researched because they are difficult to study and opaque. 3/
I always seem to find these posts are never written to be open for someone who studies powerful actors. I would gladly apply but apparently I am not what you’re looking for. 4/
