investigates mediated language use in public spheres, organizations, and personal communication, including newspaper journalism, broadcasting, and social media;

examines the interplay of language and media from both linguistic and media perspectives, discussing auditory and visual media and graphic modes, as well as language and gender, multilingualism, and language change;
