Produktbeschreibung
Counter to popular belief, negative, emotional, and even biased political news coverage has some benefits for the American people-influencing their ability to perceive a clear choice between the two major parties, increasing their willingness to participate in politics, focusing their attention on important issues, improving their political knowledge, and building their own feelings of political efficacy. On the other hand, the news media negatively contribute to trust in government and political compromise, both vital elements in a flourishing democracy. Shedding much needed light on a complicated issue, this text will be an essential tool for helping students of the media develop a critical eye toward widely held views.

Autorenporträt
Michael W. Wagner is an assistant professor in the University of Wisconsin-Madison's School of Journalism and Mass Communication. His research, teaching, and service are animated by the question, "how well does democracy work?" Wagner approaches this question from a variety of perspectives, incorporating elements of the study of political communication, political parties, journalism, public opinion, political psychology, political behavior, religion and politics, the presidency, and biology into his work. Mike Gruszczynski is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, TN. His research primarily focuses on how emotions influence political beliefs and behavior. His interests more broadly are in political communication, psychology, and public policy.
