The blurb is as follows: This text provides empirical research on some of the most controversial media issues of our times.

The second chapter covers how violent depictions affect violence in society. What are the findings of various government commissions and other research on depictions of media violence? The third chapter presents theories on causes and prevention of violence Are viewers desensitized to violence in society? Does long-term viewing affect more aggressive behavior? Are there ways to mitigate the effects of viewing violence? The final chapter covers how political content affects voters. How are receivers socialized politically? What is the hereditary vote? What knowledge is gained from political content? What are the effects of political debates? What is the nature and effect of bias in the media? What role does Internet content play?

Incredible answer from Bezos about the Wapo, love that : "In the annual public surveys about trust and reputation, journalists and the media have regularly fallen near the very bottom, often just above Congress. But in this year’s Gallup poll, we have managed to fall below Congress. Our profession is now the least trusted of all. Something we are doing is clearly not working." full article here https://lnkd.in/gex8PvBY

Focus on connecting, not correcting! Do you liked to be talk AT? Of course you don't. Nobody does. Correcting misinformation (or fostering brand advocates) starts by making a connection with someone, not spewing facts or data at them. Take a lesson from this year's election season - focus on connecting and communicating, not correcting! via NPR https://lnkd.in/gNVdErQ9

Longtime LinkedIn user, first-time poster! I wanted to share that I've started a tiny venture in the form of a newsletter. Introducing Mind the Gap, a medium for exploring public opinion data, trends, and headlines through the lens of political psychology. First piece is out today: what do voters actually mean when they say the economy is in bad shape, and what does it have to do with immigration? You can find it here: /https://lnkd.in/gsT4QDJP
