Beschreibung
The broadcast network is changing. Today in the United States, the average viewer can choose from hundreds of channels, including several twenty-four hour news channels. News is on cell phones, on iPods, and online; it has become a ubiquitous and unavoidable reality in modern society. The purpose of this book is to examine systematically, how these differences in access and form of media affect political behaviour. Using experiments and new survey data, it shows how changes in the media environment reverberate through the political system, affecting news exposure, political learning, turnout, and voting behaviour.

Zusammenfassung
This volume considers how television and the Internet have changed politics in the United States over the last half-century. The study shows that the degree of choice among different media content affects news exposure, political learning, turnout, and the polarization of elections. To understand and predict who will learn about politics and vote in our high-choice media environment, researchers need to measure people's media content preferences.
