%X This report, produced by CCI in collaboration with the University of Oslo, investigates how the political uses of social media are  portrayed in the Australian mainstream media, in order to understand the  perceptions that help shape how politicians, citizens and journalists  employ new media tools to support their political objectives. Through a  longitudinal comparative analysis we identify significant changes in how  social media have been reported on since 2008.
