120. The Influencer Industry - The Quest for Authenticity on Social Media: Dr. Emily Hund (Author of "The Influencer Industry")

  • サマリー

  • Send us a text

    “Authenticity” has become an economic token on social media. And, not in a metaphorical way. This has led to people becoming brands. The so-called “influencer” is an icon of an industry not yet recognized or respected by society at large.

    This new industry is composed of a digital labor force whose livelihoods are at the whims of all-powerful, ever-changing algorithms. In this episode, Dr. Emily Hund, the author of The Influencer Industry: The Quest for Authenticity on Social Media (Princeton University Press, 2023), explains the rise of this new economy and why it should be recognized and legitimized by the public.

    Topics:

    • How did this “branded” culture develop?
    • What is an “influencer?”
    • The Narrative of Self-sufficiency: Are you really self-sufficient if you are an influencer?
    • "Authenticity" on Social Media - is it really authentic?
    • Legitimizing the "Influencer Industry"
    • "What books have had an impact on you?"
    • "What advice do you have for teenagers?"
