Uncovering the Structure of the French Media Ecosystem?

EasyChair Preprint 6208

Abstract

We study the structure of the French media ecosystem. We both apply SBM analysis to the hyperlink network between information sources and measure the ideological distribution of news stories using Twitter data. Both analyses suggest that the French media landscape is not as polarized as in the US.

Keyphrases: ideology scaling, media ecosystem, polarization, social media analysis, stochastic block model
