Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

After organizing Media Democracy Day events for three years, I have mixed opinions about my future involvement. In the summer of 2001, handful of Toronto media activists started planning for new fall event. October 18th would promote a mass media system that informs and empowers all members of society. Our Web site (www.mediademocracyday.org) continues on with Media Democracy Day connecting existing critical and creative media with active social movements, creating coherent message for public attention and local and global action. Media Democracy Day is day of international action based on three themes: 1) Education—understanding how the media shapes our world and our democracy; 2) Protest--against media system based on commercialization and exclusiveness; and 3) Change--calls for media reforms that respond to public interests, promote diversity, and ensure community representation and accountability.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
