Entitled Opinions Doxa After Digitality

"Entitled Opinions is a ball of lightning, crackling and crashing through centuries of rhetorical theory to match the breakneck, viral energy of our social media era. Caddie Alford's 'expansive and affirmative theory of opinions' provides a crucial alternative to nostalgic calls for media literacy and demands to combat misinformation." - Collin G. Brooke, Syracuse University

". . .Alford. . . offers a panoramic poetics of doxa, a series of exploratory surveys that do justice to doxa's vibrancy and sensuality - from its role as both the content and the form of our digital sociality, to the strange choric temporality with which it (and we) surge and recede. Pursuing this project through numerous social media narratives, platforms, and algorithms, Alford offers a version of a doxa that hums with a familiar yet enigmatic sense of connection." - John Muckelbauer, associate professor of English, University of South Carolina
