News That Matters by Shanto Iyengar

Backed by careful analysis of public opinion surveys, the authors show how, despite changing American politics, those issues that receive extended coverage in the national news become more important to viewers, while those that are ignored lose credibility.
"Because of its methodological integrity and richness, News That Matters is likely to be regarded as an impressive, possibly groundbreaking work" - New York Times Book Review "News That Matters does matter, because it demonstrates conclusively that television newscasts powerfully affect opinion.... All that follows, whether it supports, modifies, or challenges their conclusions, will have to begin here." - Public Interest"
