How can it be, then, that public attentiveness to U.S. foreign policy crises has increased? This book represents the first systematic attempt to explain this apparent paradox. Matthew Baum argues that the answer lies in changes to television's presentation of political information. In so doing he develops a compelling "byproduct" theory of information consumption. The information revolution has fundamentally changed the way the mass media, especially television, covers foreign policy. Traditional news has been repackaged into numerous entertainment-oriented news programs and talk shows. By transforming political issues involving scandal or violence (especially attacks against America) into entertainment, the "soft news" media have actually captured more viewers who will now follow news about foreign crises, due to its entertainment value, even if they remain uninterested in foreign policy. Baum rigorously tests his theory through content analyses of traditional and soft news media coverage of various post-WWII U.S. foreign crises and statistical analyses of public opinion surveys. The results hold key implications for the future of American politics and foreign policy. For instance, watching soft news reinforces isolationism among many inattentive Americans. Scholars, political analysts, and even politicians have tended to ignore the soft news media and politically disengaged citizens. But, as this well-written book cogently demonstrates, soft news viewers represent a largely untapped reservoir of unusually persuadable voters. 606 $aMagazine format television programs -- United States 606 $aTelevision broadcasting of news -- United States 606 $aUnited States -- Foreign relations -- Public opinion 606 $aJournalism & Communications$2HILCC 606 $aJournalism$2HILCC 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$xPublic opinion 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aMagazine format television programs -- United States. 615 4$aTelevision broadcasting of news -- United States. 615 4$aUnited States -- Foreign relations -- Public opinion. 615 7$aJournalism & Communications 615 7$aJournalism 676 $a070.1 676 $a070.1/95 700 $aBaum$b Matthew A., $01042739 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458021303321 996 $aSoft News Goes to War$92467195 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02050nam 2200421Ia 450 001 996390989103316 005 20221108044216.0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000663207 035 $a(EEBO)2240925966 035 $a(UnM)99897733 035 $a(UnM)9929046200971 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000663207 100 $a19940418d1662 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||a|bb| 200 10$aThree great ordinances, of Jesus Christ·$b[electronic resource] $eviz. 1.
