About me

I am an experienced media maker, researcher and writer. I began my teaching career at City, University of London helping journalists to publish onto the web. I am now programme leader of UWE's BA (hons) Media Production. You can find more information about me at www.mjgw.net.​

Area of expertise

Despite holding degrees in linguistics and law, my overall field is journalism and critical media studies. In particular I research the ways that incidental exposure to factual content (and misinformation) on the internet is driven and mediated by cultural participation, attention economics, the psychology of affect, and political-economic factors. My current research examines the cultures of informal knowledge transfer on Youtube, TikTok and other social media platforms.
