Podcast appearances and mentions of karen kornbluh

This spring, Karen Kornbluh and Adrienne Goldstein from the German Marshall Fund's Digital Innovation and Democracy Initiative published a document they call the Civic Information Handbook, which they produced in collaboration with University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Center for Information, Technology, and Public Life (CITAP). Civic information—“important information needed to participate in democracy—is too often drowned out by viral falsehoods, including conspiracy theories.” The Handbook is intended as a resource to help knowledge-producing organizations in the “amplification of fact-based information.” To learn more about the handbook and the ideas on which it is based, Justin Hendrix spoke to GMF research assistant Adrienne Goldstein, as well as Kathryn Peters, executive director of UNC CITAP.

Former Ambassador and Senior Fellow at the German Marshall Fund, Karen Kornbluh, joins Niki in the Tech'ed Up studio for a rollicking conversation about whether tech policy is passé, the ongoing Twitter implosion, and misinformation being a loser. This conversation covers the erosion of trust in institutions, cynicism as a by product of social media, and the power of storytelling to combat both.○ Read Karen's New York Times profile○ Donate to Wikipedia○ Follow Niki on Twitter

It turns out Americans have been asking the wrong question: It's not, “What's the difference between the ‘haves' and the ‘have nots,'” but rather…“How did those in the 0.1% end up having it all?”  To paraphrase my guest, entrepreneur and venture capitalist Nick Hanauer (https://nickhanauer.com/), “How do [rich people like me] manage to grab an ever-increasing piece of the pie? Is it because rich people are smarter than we were 30 years ago? Is it that we're working harder than we once did? Are we taller? Better-looking? Sadly, no. It all comes down to one thing: economics.” My thesis? Capitalism is the economic system that creates wealth, and good economic policy is what ensures that all that wealth doesn't accrue to a very small group of people.

每日英語跟讀 Ep.994: On Facebook, Misinformation Is More Popular Now Than in 2016 During the 2016 presidential election, Russian operatives used Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and other social media platforms to spread disinformation to divide the American electorate. Since then, the social media companies have spent billions of dollars and hired tens of thousands of people to help clean up their act. 2016年總統大選期間，俄國特務利用臉書、Instagram、推特和其他社群媒體平台，散播假訊息以分化美國選民。自此之後，社群媒體公司已花費數十億美元，雇用數萬人以協助清除此類行為。 But have the platforms really become more sophisticated at handling misinformation?Not necessarily. 但是，這些平台在處理不實訊息上真的變得更為老練了嗎？不盡然。 People are engaging more on Facebook today with news outlets that routinely publish misinformation than they did before the 2016 election, according to new research from the German Marshall Fund Digital, the digital arm of the public policy think tank. The organization , which has a data partnership with the startup NewsGuard and social media analytics firm NewsWhip, published its findingspublished its findings earlier this month. 根據（美國）公共政策智庫「德國馬歇爾基金會」的數位部門「德國馬歇爾基金數位」的新研究，比起2016年大選之前，民眾今日在臉書上更常接觸慣常發布錯誤訊息的新聞網站。這個組織和新創企業NewsGuard及社群媒體分析公司NewsWhip是數據資料合作夥伴，本月稍早發表了前述結果。 In total, Facebook likes, comments and shares of articles from news outlets that regularly publish falsehoods and misleading content roughly tripled from the third quarter of 2016 to the third quarter of 2020, the group found. 該組織發現，整體而言，慣常發布錯誤與誤導性內容的新聞網站所發布的信息，在臉書上獲得的讚、留言和分享數，自2016年第三季至2020年第三季約增為三倍。 About two-thirds of those likes and comments were of articles published by 10 outlets, which the researchers categorized as “false content producers” or “manipulators.” Those news outlets included Palmer Report and The Federalist, according to the research. 這些讚和留言約三分之二是針對來自10個新聞網站的報導，研究人員把這些媒體歸類為「不實內容製造者」或「操縱者」。根據前述研究，這些媒體包括帕爾默報告和聯邦主義者。 The group used ratings from NewsGuard, which ranks news sites based on how they uphold nine journalistic principles, to sort them into “false content producers,” which repeatedly publish provably false content; and “manipulators,” which regularly present unsubstantiated claims or that distort information to make an argument. 這個組織使用來自NewsGuard的評分，依據新聞網站遵循九項新聞守則的程度加以排名，將它們歸類為重複刊登可證實為誤之內容的「不實內容製造者」，以及例常提出缺乏根據的說法，或扭曲資訊以支持其論點的「操縱者」。 “We have these sites that masquerade as news outlets online. They're allowed to,” said Karen Kornbluh, director of GMF Digital. “It's infecting our discourse, and it's affecting the long-term health of the democracy.” 「這些網站假扮成網路新聞機構，它們被允許這麼做。」馬歇爾基金數位的執行長凱倫‧康卜勒說。「這正在毒害我們的公共論述，以及民主政治的長期健康。」 Kornbluh said Facebook users engaged more with articles from all news outlets this year because the coronavirus pandemic forced people to quarantine indoors. But the growth rate of likes, shares and comments of content from manipulators and false content producers exceeded the interactions that people had with what the researchers called “legitimate journalistic outlets,” such as Reuters, Associated Press and Bloomberg. 康卜勒說，臉書用戶今年更常接觸所有新聞機構的文章，因為新冠肺炎疫情迫使人們待在室內隔離。但是用戶給予操縱者和不實內容製造者所提供信息的讚、分享和留言的增加率，已超過用戶和研究人員所稱的「合法新聞機構」之互動程度，路透、美聯社和彭博資訊即屬後者。 Source article: https://paper.udn.com/udnpaper/POH0067/358604/web/ 每日英語跟讀Podcast，就在http://www.15mins.today/daily-shadowing 每週Vocab精選詞彙Podcast，就在https://www.15mins.today/vocab 每週In-TENSE文法練習Podcast，就在https://www.15mins.today/in-tense 用email訂閱就可以收到通勤學英語節目更新通知。  

At this point, consumers, tech employees, even the CEOs of some big tech companies say there should be more regulation around online privacy, advertising and even disinformation. But what might that regulation look like? The German Marshall Fund think tank is pushing for an initiative called the Digital New Deal. It contains a bunch of policy proposals and would ideally create more transparency into how tech companies operate and question the incentives that push disinformation. Molly Wood discusses it with Karen Kornbluh, director of the Digital Innovation and Democracy Initiative at the German Marshall Fund.

This week on Out of Order, Karen Kornbluh, director of GMF’s new Digital Innovation and Democracy Initiative, and Michel Servoz, special adviser to European Commission President Juncker for robotics, AI, and the future of labor, discuss the frontier technologies changing society, differences in the U.S. and European tech policy debates, and why bridging the Silicon Valley-Washington-Brussels gap is essential.

Although widespread retail-worker strikes failed to enact a rise of the federal minimum wage in 2013, on the state level, the tide is turning. Last week 13 states started the New Year by raised their minimum wage, and as many as 11 states, and Washington, D.C., are considering  passing similar legislation in 2014. To shed light on the evolving public debate surrounding wage gaps in the US we are revisiting a debate we staged last Spring “Abolish the Minimum Wage.” That evening James Dorn of the Cato Institute and popular economist Russ Roberts argued for the motion, and faced Jared Bernstein from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities and Karen Kornbluh, a former senior adviser to President Barack Obama.  Learn more about your ad choices.
