Hierarchy of Influences

Abstract

The hierarchy of influences model describes the factors affecting media content organized by levels of analysis. These include influences attributable to individual characteristics of the communicator, routines of media work, the media organization, social‐institutional factors, and, at the most macro, the social system. This theoretical perspective has been valuable for researchers in helping explicate concepts, synthesize findings in the area of media sociology and guide comparative cross‐national studies of journalism.
