I wrote this review on Tim Highfield’s book Social Media and Everyday Politics for Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. Here’s an excerpt from the article: “Highfield raises the idea of social media tools as backchannels for other events, actions, or information a few times throughout the text. This is notable in that it points to the often-insidious power of social media on the individual and that individual’s consumption and use of social media content.”
