Published article Twitter thread In previous scholarly work (here and here), I documented a marked increase of references to prejudice in US, UK and Spanish news media content. The work summarized here investigates the prevalence dynamics of prejudice-denoting terms in 175 million academic papers published in all fields of knowledge. We quantify the prevalence of words denoting prejudice against ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, minority religious sentiment, age, body weight and disability in SSORC abstracts over the period 1970-2020.
Great work. I am trying to access your tool "New York Times Media Analytics", previously hosted at https://media-analytics.op-bit.nz/, but it appears that URL no longer works. Is the tool hosted elsewhere? I am keen to use it.
So the institutions we collectively support with billions of dollars annually and trust to pass down the inherited wisdom of our culture and traditions, to educate the next generation of citizens in our civics and history in the hope of maintaining what was recently a safe and prosperous democracy have been hijacked by a cabal of fundamentalist fanatics who won't rest until every aspect of our society (from sex to culture to thought to our political structures) is denounced, deconstructed and dismantled and replaced by their monomaniacal utopian ideology?
How did this happen? Who allowed this?
One of the saddest and most infuriating aspects of this is that while the rest of us have to live in the rubble they created, all the academic bureaucrats, the trustees and college prezes and adminstrators have golden parachuted themselves to safety.
Can you provide the code for the factor analysis ?
I don't understand what is the matrix that was used for it. The rows represent the article and the column the word (all the word or all the social justice words ?). Is that right ?
