📢Reducing or increasing news exposure has no positive or negative over-time effects. We paid people to use no news (🇺🇸) or more news (🇵🇱) and......nothing happened. #OpenAccess #publication @HSScommns w/ Bernhard Clemm Ericka Menchen-Trevino Andreu Casas nature.com/articles/s4159…

is the adjective form of milkshake duck "milkshake ducked" (e.g. that podcast was milkshake ducked)? Or do we always have to use it as a noun (e.g. that podcast is a milkshake duck)?

During the 2020 election, we conducted a 23k-person pre-registered field experiment on Facebook, reducing exposure to content from politically like-minded sources: nature.com/articles/s4158…. The article has a wealth of other information, including stats on platform "echo chambers."
