Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This study examined if political characteristics of a community influence the community newspapers’ coverage of 2004 Democratic Primaries and if this community influence on newspaper content differs between print and online versions of newspapers. For this purpose, this study collected front pages of print newspapers and home pages of online counterparts from 112 US newspapers published in 104 cities. Then, how prominently these newspapers covered 2004 Democratic Primary elections was examined by measuring the proportion of the space of Primary-related stories over the space of a front page or a home page and the number of Primary-related photos presented on the front page or home page. For the political characteristics of communities, 13 secondary data were gathered and grouped into three construct variables such as political interest, political affiliation, and political organization. Correlation, hierarchical multiple regression, and contextual analyses found that the political characteristics of communities influenced the community newspapers’ coverage of the Democrat Primaries. Interestingly, this community influence on newspaper content was greater for print versions than online counterparts. The boundary-transcending capacity of online newspapers might have led them to be less vulnerable to the community influence on media than the print newspapers.
