普通公民通常不会直接体验政府政策,而是从大众媒体了解政策。因此,媒体对公共政策报道的性质对于公众舆论和政策本身都具有真实的重要性。然而,公共政策和政治传播的学者在开发跟踪媒体内容中公共政策报道的方法方面投入的时间相当少。在一个媒体报道可以随时以数字形式获得的时代,缺乏关注更加引人注目。本文提出了一个建议,以跟踪报道的实际方向的政策变化,在大众媒体。它从一些方法上的考虑开始,然后借鉴了一个暂时的案例-美国的国防开支-来评估我们的自动内容分析方法的有效性。结果说话的数量和质量在媒体报道的政策问题,以及大众媒体的潜在作用,既通知和误导现代代议制民主。
The average citizen often does not experience government policy directly, but learns about it from the mass media. The nature of media coverage of public policy is thus of real importance, for both public opinion and policy itself. It nevertheless is the case that scholars of public policy and political communication have invested rather little time in developing methods to track public policy coverage in media content. The lack of attention is all the more striking in an era in which media coverage is readily available in digital form. This paper offers a proposal for tracking coverage of the actual direction of policy change in mass media. It begins with some methodological considerations, and then draws on an expository case—defense spending in the United States—to assess the effectiveness of our automated content‐analytic methods. Results speak to the quantity and quality in media coverage of policy issues, and the potential role of mass media—to both inform and mislead—in modern representative democracy.
