Sad news: Vincent Mosco, one of the great scholars of pol eco of communication has passed away.

RIP Vincent Mosco. We owe you so much. And this is an absolutely metal final tweet.

Vincent Mosco was a giant in critical communication studies and a super friendly guy when he was on campus to give a wonderful talk here a few years ago. I didn't know him well but it was a pleasure and honor to meet him that day. Will look forward to this final work's publication. RIP.

One of my PhD committee members, Dr. Vincent Mosco, died suddenly a few days ago. He was a brilliant and gentle mentor and I’m forever grateful for his guidance. He taught me that brilliant people can also be kind people. RIP, Vinny. carleton.ca/sjc/2024/vin...
