Social Media Democracy Mirage: How Social Media News Fuels a Politically Uninformed Participatory Democracy - Elements in Politics and Communication
Gil de Zuniga, Homero (Universidad de Salamanca, Spain and Pennsylvania State University)

Social media have led to a socio-political paradox in which people are more participatory than ever, yet not necessarily more informed.
