Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: In this paper we present a theoretical framework that facilitates systematic, cross-country comparisons by distinguishing, first, between restricted and pluralistic media environments and, second, between state- and private-owned media systems. In short, we argue that the characteristics of a country’s mass media can shape public support for the political system and regime institutions—depending mainly on how exposed the citizenry is to news about politics and public affairs. To this end, in this study we first detail the current state of the literature on media structures and political outcomes. Then we posit a theory that integrates the disparate findings into a single, comprehensive, and generalizable framework. With this theoretical framework in mind, we formulate three hypotheses on the way the media influence political support at two levels: support for democracy as the best form of government and support for regime institutions. To test these hypotheses, we present statistical evidence from aggregate- and individual-level data on a wide variety of developed and developing nations.
