Digital News Report 2023. Episode 4: Attitudes towards algorithms and their impact on news
In this episode of our #DNR23 podcast series we explore people’s attitudes towards algorithmic selection of news and the correlation with attitudes towards editorial selection. We explore how people’s self-reported news behaviours and trust in news influence attitudes towards how news is selected, and we look at concerns about missing out on news due to algorithmic selection.
