尽管中介化作为一个术语在学术文献中常用，但它很少得到很好的定义，而且几乎没有研究明确地试图研究政治的中介化。借鉴文献的媒介化，媒体干预主义，政治新闻报道和相关领域，本文的目的是开发指标的程度，新闻内容的媒介化，并测试这些在比较内容分析瑞典和美国的电视新闻如何覆盖2006年瑞典和2008年美国大选。结果表明，美国电视上的选举新闻比瑞典电视上的选举新闻更中介化，正如预期的那样。然而，在瑞典的商业和公共服务电视新闻中发现的差异很少。研究还表明，新闻内容的媒介化可能受到民族新闻文化、政治新闻文化和政治传播文化的调节。
Although mediatization as a term is commonly used in the academic literature, it is rarely defined well and there are almost no studies that explicitly seek to investigate the mediatization of politics. Drawing on the literature on mediatization, media interventionism, political news journalism and related areas, the purpose of this article is to develop indicators of the degree to which news content is mediatized, and test these in a comparative content analysis of how Swedish and US television news covered the 2006 Swedish and 2008 US election campaigns. The results show that election news on US television is more mediatized than that on Swedish television, as expected. However, few differences were found across commercial and public service television news within Sweden. The study also suggests that the mediatization of news content may be moderated by national journalism cultures, political news cultures and political communication cultures.
