Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Scholars disagree over whether news attention is concentrated among those with cognitive skills (e.g., the most educated) or among specific issue publics who happen to be interested in a particular issue (e.g., blacks, women, the elderly). Both sides of this debate overlook the role of the information environment—in particular, the amount of media coverage an issue receives. This project examines how the information environment influences individuals’ attention to the news. It combines survey data and media content in a multilevel analysis that spans 16 years and nearly 60 issues. Though it is generally the case that public opinion is characterized by “pockets of responsibility” (with issue publics paying attention to the topics they care most about), extensive media coverage can motivate a much broader audience to pay attention to current affairs.
