Opis

Contributors to this volume critically examine Zaller's model and its implications, empirical and normative. The introduction contrasts two different strands in Zaller's book, one of which confines the impact of media messages to politicians' cues, the other of which emphasizes the impact of journalists' interpretive frames.
