选择将出现在美国总统候选人名单上的政党候选人,是一个漫长的过程,在大选前两年就开始了。新闻媒体通过不断报道比赛状态,在这一过程中发挥着特殊的作用。这种新闻报道如何才能被定性?考虑到有成千上万的新闻机构,但我们每个人都只接触到其中的几家,我们可能会错过其中的大部分。在线新闻聚合器汇集了来自多种新闻来源和视角的新闻故事,可以为分析提供一个重要的视角。一个这样的聚合器就是谷歌的热门新闻,这是谷歌搜索结果页面最近新增的一个功能。在2019年期间,我们收集了谷歌热门新闻为美国两党30名候选人展示的新闻标题。我们的数据集包含由2,168个唯一新闻源发布的79,903个新闻故事URL。我们的分析表明,尽管有如此多的新闻来源,但顶级新闻的来源分布非常不平衡,极少数消息来源贡献了大部分故事。我们正在分享我们的数据集1,以便其他研究人员能够回答与政治选举背景下的新闻算法精选以及媒体议程设置有关的问题。
Choosing the political party nominees, who will appear on the ballot for the US presidency, is a long process that starts two years before the general election. The news media plays a particular role in this process by continuously covering the state of the race. How can this news coverage be characterized? Given that there are thousands of news organizations, but each of us is exposed to only a few of them, we might be missing most of it. Online news aggregators, which aggregate news stories from a multitude of news sources and perspectives, could provide an important lens for the analysis. One such aggregator is Google's Top stories, a recent addition to Google's search result page. For the duration of 2019, we have collected the news headlines that Google Top stories has displayed for 30 candidates of both US political parties. Our dataset contains 79,903 news story URLs published by 2,168 unique news sources. Our analysis indicates that despite this large number of news sources, there is a very skewed distribution of where the Top stories are originating, with a very small number of sources contributing the majority of stories. We are sharing our dataset1 so that other researchers can answer questions related to algorithmic curation of news as well as media agenda setting in the context of political elections.
