In light of the need for political plurality and informed debate this study questions information distribution and curation on Twitter. We contribute to the understanding of ideological homophily by exploring the notion of the ‘echo chamber’. Using a sample of two weeks of Dutch Twitter data, we combine network analysis of retweet networks, with qualitative reading and categorisation of engagement with media content in tweets within political topic communities. We found that media references were predominantly framed in affirmative ways in relation to the referenced medium content. Our findings show that users consciously select media messages that correspond with the general sentiment within their topic community, or frame them accordingly. We see this as a willful ‘echo chamber’, or a ‘repillarisation’.

政治主题社区及其在荷兰Twittersphere中的框架做法

鉴于需要政治多元化和知情辩论,本研究对Twitter上的信息分发和管理提出了质疑。通过探索“回声室”的概念,我们有助于意识形态的理解。我们使用两周的荷兰Twitter数据样本,将转推网络的网络分析与政治主题社区内推文中与媒体内容的互动进行定性阅读和分类相结合。我们发现媒体参考主要以肯定的方式相对于所参考的媒体内容进行构架。我们的发现表明,用户有意识地选择与其主题社区中的总体情绪相对应的媒体消息,或相应地对其进行构架。我们将其视为故意的“回音室”或“复律”。
