Introduction
I am a Lecturer in Media Studies at the Queen's University Belfast, UK. My broader research sits at the intersection of media, culture, and society, specifically focusing on digital media and race/ethnicity. Currently, I am researching how different societies experience and combat misinformation in their everyday engagement with digital media. I use a mixed method approach to study, evaluate and develop potential products and solutions to combat mis- and disinformation.

One of these surprises was his videotaped appearance on TED. By adopting postsecularism as a conceptual framework, this study examines the dominant discurs...
