Media Coverage of Presidential Elections, Debates and Campaigns throughout the Last Century Including Discussion on Bias and Influence
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 12 page paper discussing media coverage of presidential elections, campaigns and debates. Throughout the last century media coverage of the Presidential elections, campaigns, issues and debates has grown from print media including newspapers and magazines to include radio, newsreels, television and internet coverage. Newspaper and radio coverage are still considered vital in reaching millions of American but despite its slow start, television coverage has become a major influence regarding public opinion. In most cases, the public are skeptical about the bias which may or may not occur from journalists but they accept this bias because they rely upon the media for their information about the candidates. In addition, television journalists argue that it is their position to provide professional commentary to try and overcome the political spin placed on many of the issues by candidates. Election and debate coverage as well have come under controversy as many believe the quick processing of election results provided by the media may influence voter turnout and bias in different parts of the country and media coverage of debates has been shown to change peoples minds about the initial impression given by the candidates during the debates. Regardless of the controversy which surrounds media coverage, most critics agree that the extensive options available to the public in regards to coverage of presidential events should allow the population to make the best democratic decisions.

Just as the strong nationalistic tendencies of Iraq and the U.S. alike shaped the public perception of the affairs which were unfolding, so too did they shape the behavior of the American and the Iraqi people.
