“Media studies are popular, dynamic and have ‘profound impact’, report says”

'While we should worry about the conduit from toxic manosphere fringe to teen-friendly TikTok fare, if the plan was to brainwash a new generation, it doesn’t seem to be working very well. In fact, sigmas have become a bit of a laughing stock.'

“There’s a chance that without intervention, the higher education model may accidentally evolve … into a two-tier system based on who can afford to attend university.” True except for the accident part. theguardian.com/education/arti…
