HPS Insights: Capitol Chatter Analysis

In this episode of HPS Insights, Meghan interviews HPS's Andrea Christianson, JinAh Kim, Maggie Wang, and Parker St. Jean about their recent project, Capitol Chatter: A Quarterly Analysis of Congressional Tweets. The team chats about how Twitter mentions of certain issues can differ from mainstream media coverage. They also discuss emerging trends in elected officials' approach to Tweeting, contrasting recent posts about inflation from Democratic and Republican Members of Congress as an example. This week's guests also explain how the analysis has changed over time and give a preview on changes we'll likely see in future quarters.
