Research

PhD project, January 2021–beginning of 2027:

In my project, I investigate the linguistic practices of consumers who comment on news on social media. Among other things, they complete the content of news articles, provide with news media criticism, negotiate about norms for news commenting, and speculate about the causes of a fire. More specifically, my interest lies on what the comments are doing linguistically in their contexts of news journalism.

Main supervisor: Andreas Nord; assistant supervisors: Marie Sörlin and Hanna Sofia Rehnberg
