9679 Doris A. Graber Processing the News: How People Tame the Information Tide
New York Longman 1984 Softcover Good
PROCESSING THE NEWS: HOW PEOPLE TAME THE INFORMATION TIDE by Doris A. Graber - "The print and electronic media provide Americans with a flood tide of political information. Which portrions of this information capture people's attention? Which are ignored? What patterns of information processing typify the political thinking of Americans and what do these patterns portend for the political process? These are the important questions which Processing the News seeks to answer. This pioneering book differs significantly in substance and method from previous related studies. Substantively, it deals with the entire range of political news, and unlike other books which concentrate on what people believe, Processing the News focuses on how they cope with political information. Methodologically, it relies upon intensive analysis of a small group of people rather than survey research. This intensive approach has permitted close observation and detailed questioning of panelists about their understanding of and reaction of specific news stories." Softcover, light shelf wear, some discoloration around outer edges, faded stamp on first page, pages are tight, text clean, underlining, book in good condition!
