Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Studies often find the absence of the effects of unemployed status on norms and beliefs about market justice. Based on a systematic analysis of data from a survey in urban China, this study suggests that exposure to media, a factor neglected in previous research, can mediate the opinions of unemployed people about market justice, although not indiscriminatingly. It is found that people’s familiarity with the messages conveyed by media and the availability and importance of alternative channels for information to make assessment decide whether exposure to media can mediate the effects of unemployed status on attitudes toward market justice. Regression results indicate that exposure to media can attenuate unemployed people’s disagreement with the indispensability of a free market for China’s economic prosperity and the legitimacy of pursuit of personal interest. Exposure to media can also mitigate unemployed people’s disapproval of meritocratic explanation of poverty and pessimism about the prospect of getting ahead. Media does not influence the attitudes of unemployed people toward meritocratic reward principles, legitimacy of inequality under the condition of equal opportunity, or meritocratic explanation of wealth.
