"Massenmedien sind für die meisten Menschen die bei weitem wichtigste Quelle politischer Informationen. Sie bilden das politische Geschehen nicht einfach ab, sondern haben durch ihre Selektionskriterien und Deutungsmuster eigenständige Einflüsse auf die politischen Einstellungen der Rezipienten. ... more
"Across Europe there is as yet little evidence to support the idea that increased exposure to news featuring like-minded or opposing views leads to the widespread polarisation of attitudes. Although some studies have found that both can strengthen the attitudes of a minority who already hold strong ... more
