Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This goal of this study is to examine the role of the media in promoting support for institutions and incumbents. Current theory holds that a critical or negative press decreases citizens’ support for those people or institutions being critiqued. Most studies rely on survey data in order to argue that exposure to the media increases level of cynicism and increases distrust of government. However, there is a concern of what attitudes questions are tapping. For instance, democratic support is very different from incumbent support. But how does support for an incumbent or an institution translate to support for democracy? This paper is an exploratory work in which the authors surveyed a random sample of Los Angeles county residents in order to assess the effects of media on attitudes towards institutions, incumbents and democracy. It is hoped that findings from this work will provide direction so that the research can be expanded to emerging democracies and provide insight into the role of the media in promoting support for democracy in those countries.
