International news media exposure, knowledge, and attitudes

Abstract

This study provided mixed support for traditional expectations on the impact of exposure to international news in the U.S. The study questioned whether different news media have a differential impact on knowledge, attitudes, and opinions about international subjects. The medium seemed to make a difference under certain circumstances and for certain topics. Not all media, however, had equal impact. The study also questioned whether knowledge and views espoused by an adult audience are made more homogeneous as exposure to international news increases. The media were not likely to promote homogeneity or cognitive and attitudinal dependence in their audiences.
