1
Zaller has suggested that the journalistic “ideal” of quality news is unrealistic and presumes a
level of citizenship that is unnecessary in a representative democracy (Zaller 2003).
2
Persons on the street were considered experts, however, for stories about public opinion.
3
Due to coding difficulties, there was no way to separate lead from non-lead stories. Thus,
comparisons had to be made to the entire sample including lead stories.
4
The story-level data was weighted and used instead of station level data for two reasons. First,
the results are essentially the same for the two data sets. Secondly, the aggregation required of the story quality characteristics to the station level is so extensive (percentages or averages) that much information is lost.
