A basic premise of public scholarship is making academic work and
related ideas accessible and available to publics. Media
engagement, whether interviews with news journalists, or the use of
hashtags, is a necessary feature of any public scholarship. Media
formats play a fundamental and interactive role in how people
ultimately come to view and understand the social world having had
a discernable influence on election outcomes, responses to global
pandemics, and so on. The question is not whether scholars should
engage with media but how to do so. Drawing on fifteen years of
experience that includes hundreds of print, radio, and television
news interviews, dozens of published opinion pieces, and the use of
social media for public engagement, this book outlines a practical
easy-to-follow approach to doing public sociology in media that
consists of, and brings together, interrelated forms of media
engagement. This book also offers some advice pertaining to career
advancement and provides strategies to avoid negative experiences.
Doing Public Scholarship will be of general interest to those
wanting to go public with their research.
