@Geoff_Cameron @jsamimifarr (that has more to do with bylines than branding, though. a lot of "branding" takes place outside of the actual journalism -- via social media, tv appearances, etc) — PolitiTweet.org

Elahe Izadi | الهه @ElaheIzadi

@Geoff_Cameron @jsamimifarr Well, some other things to consider: when journalists want to protest their workplace conditions, one way is via a byline strike. Or if a reporter works on a story they no longer stand by, they insist on having their byline removed. — PolitiTweet.org

@Geoff_Cameron @jsamimifarr Or the reality of being a working journalist. Back then, you’d work at the same paper your whole career. I don’t know many people my age (and I’m not even that young) who’ve only been at one place. — PolitiTweet.org

@jsamimifarr @Geoff_Cameron Sometimes it’s a good pressure! I’m being publicly accountable, even if what ends up published isn’t just the work of me, alone. — PolitiTweet.org

Elahe Izadi | الهه @ElaheIzadi

@Geoff_Cameron @jsamimifarr But then I think about the individual journalist. It works great maybe for the institution, but reporters’ value in the job marketplace is tied to their body of work. If it’s not clear what that is, is it harder to develop a following, job offers, get tips/cultivate sources, etc? — PolitiTweet.org

Elahe Izadi | الهه @ElaheIzadi

@jsamimifarr @Geoff_Cameron Also times where it can be bad, for the individual journalist and the public. But I’ll just say— having a byline on a story puts particular pressures on a reporter. — PolitiTweet.org

@jsamimifarr Yeah, in fact, you’d get in major trouble for writing under a pseudonym. But I guess most people don’t care about the personal lives of journalists so we good. — PolitiTweet.org

Elahe Izadi | الهه @ElaheIzadi

@jsamimifarr Plus, some news consumers come to follow a particular reporter’s work bc they develop a sense of trust in that PERSON, beyond the institution they work within. — PolitiTweet.org

Elahe Izadi | الهه @ElaheIzadi

@jsamimifarr Industry moving in the opposite direction. Obviously there’s the “branding” thing (which, ya know...) but there’s also research that people have more trust in reporting when they know more about the person doing the reporting. — PolitiTweet.org

Some people spent a year+ taking care of HIGHLY immunosuppressed family members. It’s exhausting, emotionally taxing. If they still feel like wearing a mask when they go outside b/c they’ll be damned if they bring the virus home now, even if it’s highly unlikely — let them??? — PolitiTweet.org

Like the assumptions that we have about people’s situations is interesting. Some people CAN’T get the vaccine because of their health conditions but still believe covid is real and deadly. — PolitiTweet.org

Elahe Izadi | الهه @ElaheIzadi

I also don’t get the concern about people wearing masks. Some vaccinated people are also immunosuppressed and aren’t certain they’ve developed antibodies sufficient to protect against infection. — PolitiTweet.org
