This article interrogates platform governance and accountability amid the growing role of influencers in constructing political discourses, and particularly, in the intermediation of anti-media ideological frames through their embeddedness in networked assemblages. We deploy the concept of “networked political brokerage” to examine the sociotechnical relations among influencers, the platform, and its users, and how this dynamic assemblage engages in the intermediation of anti-media populism. The study draws from a critical examination of the network and discursive tactics deployed by Filipino YouTube influencers who advance partisan political commentary and deceptive narratives to delegitimize mainstream media institutions through issue network analysis concerning the franchise denial and eventual shutdown of the Philippines' oldest media network, ABS-CBN. We problematize how influencers engage platform affordances and cultures of use to enable, amplify, and fortify the brokering of their political agenda within a larger network of political actors, while eliding accountability. Through the mutually affirming relationship of content creators and the platform, networked hyperpoliticized contents gain visibility and galvanize anti-media rhetoric. Ultimately, the article raises concerns on the social consequences of networked political brokerage and offers a framework for how governance and policy discussions can treat the functioning of such networked political influence.

在菲律宾传播反媒体民粹主义:YouTube 影响者、网络政治掮客以及对治理的影响

本文探讨了影响者在构建政治话语中的作用越来越大的情况下,尤其是在反媒体意识形态框架通过嵌入网络组合中的中介作用中的平台治理和问责制。我们使用“网络政治经纪”的概念来研究影响者、平台及其用户之间的社会技术关系,以及这种动态组合如何参与反媒体民粹主义的中介。该研究借鉴了对网络和菲律宾 YouTube 影响者部署的话语策略的批判性研究,这些影响者通过有关拒绝特许经营权和最终关闭菲律宾的问题网络分析推进党派政治评论和欺骗性叙述,以使主流媒体机构合法化。最古老的媒体网络,ABS-CBN。我们质疑有影响力的人如何参与平台提供和使用文化,以在更大的政治参与者网络中启用、扩大和加强其政治议程的斡旋,同时消除问责制。通过内容创作者和平台的相互肯定关系,网络化的超政治化内容获得了可见性,并激发了反媒体言论。最后,本文提出了对网络政治中介的社会后果的关注,并为治理和政策讨论如何处理这种网络政治影响的运作提供了一个框架。并在更大的政治行为者网络中加强其政治议程的斡旋,同时消除问责制。通过内容创作者和平台的相互肯定关系,网络化的超政治化内容获得了可见性,并激发了反媒体言论。最后,本文提出了对网络政治中介的社会后果的关注,并为治理和政策讨论如何处理这种网络政治影响的运作提供了一个框架。并在更大的政治行为者网络中加强其政治议程的斡旋,同时消除问责制。通过内容创作者和平台的相互肯定关系,网络化的超政治化内容获得了可见性,并激发了反媒体言论。最后,本文提出了对网络政治中介的社会后果的关注,并为治理和政策讨论如何处理这种网络政治影响的运作提供了一个框架。
