Hi all,

Over the weekend, journalist Fred Kaplan published an article in the New
York Times, entitled "'WarGames' and Cybersecurity's Debt to a Hollywood
Hack" (
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/21/movies/wargames-and-cybersecuritys-debt-to-a-hollywood-hack.html?_r=0).

The core argument -- that WarGames culturally influenced the Reagan
administration's cyberpolicy -- sounded a great deal like communication
scholar Stephanie Ricker Schulte's work. When I brought this reference to
Kaplan's attention on Twitter, he was super dismissive and minced my words.

So, naturally, I wrote a blog post about the incident, situating it within
a broader trend of tech journalists (mostly men) minimizing the work of
academics (mostly women), and capitalizing on this sin of omission in
promoting their own books and other works:

https://merylalper.com/2016/02/22/please-read-the-article-please-cite-women-academics/

I'm really interested to know the thoughts of this community, both as one
that knows
digital media and society inside and out, but one also committed to
egalitarian principles.

Best,
Meryl

Meryl asked an excellent question to this group - do tech journalist (and other, I might add) bros overlook, to put it lightly, the academic work of women? While some women on this list have gotten quite a bit of press for their work, I do think that the "go to's" for quotes and attribution are mostly men....and there are a variety of structural, shall I say sociological, reasons for this, not the least of which is the online shaming that women get for bringing gender inequality up - i.e. when Meryl tweeted about this - the author responded that her point was "silly" and "ridiculous." This general topic/idea would make an excellent outlet for research, an ASA panel, blog series, etc. etc.

Thanks, Meryl!

Also women scholars can make a point of not just citing the famous men,
but also citing the good work being done women that may not be getting
the recognition it merits.

Hi all,

Over the weekend, journalist Fred Kaplan published an article in the
New York Times, entitled "'WarGames' and Cybersecurity's Debt to a
Hollywood Hack"
(http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/21/movies/wargames-and-cybersecuritys-debt-to-a-hollywood-hack.html?_r=0).

The core argument -- that WarGames culturally influenced the Reagan
administration's cyberpolicy -- sounded a great deal like
communication scholar Stephanie Ricker Schulte's work. When I
brought this reference to Kaplan's attention on Twitter, he was
super dismissive and minced my words.

So, naturally, I wrote a blog post about the incident, situating it
within a broader trend of tech journalists (mostly men) minimizing
the work of academics (mostly women), and capitalizing on this sin
of omission in promoting their own books and other works:

https://merylalper.com/2016/02/22/please-read-the-article-please-cite-women-academics/

I'm really interested to know the thoughts of this community, both
as one that knows
digital media and society inside and out, but one also committed
to egalitarian principles.

Best,
Meryl

I'd expand Victoria's comment to say that everyone can make a point in
thinking about who they cite and what they may be missing out on. This
ought to also be expanded to the syllabus writing process.

Thank you to Meryl for speaking out and engaging us in this conversation.

I’d love to point people to The Op Ed project http://www.theopedproject.org/ which is trying to get more women in the position of thought leadership. We’re working on bringing them to the University of Washington and they have run workshops at Dartmouth, Yale, Stanford, Princeton…
This is a big structural problem: If we don’t get out opinion pieces about our work it makes it harder for journalists to find our research.

As some/many of you probably know, this issue is currently receiving some attention on the AoIR list. (Assoc internet researchers.)

I don’t recall such triangulations before, and although this is on its own an important issue, the recognition is good to see.

I am totally cross-posting this text there, no apologies.

This is a big structural problem: If we don’t get out opinion pieces about our work it makes it harder for journalists to find our research.

Meryl asked an excellent question to this group - do tech journalist (and other, I might add) bros overlook, to put it lightly, the academic work of women? While some women on this list have gotten quite a bit of press for their work, I do think that the "go to's" for quotes and attribution are mostly men....and there are a variety of structural, shall I say sociological, reasons for this, not the least of which is the online shaming that women get for bringing gender inequality up - i.e. when Meryl tweeted about this - the author responded that her point was "silly" and "ridiculous."
