Mediated Politics and Citizenship in the Twenty-First Century
Since the birth of the nation, concepts about the political duties of citizens have changed drastically to keep pace with growth and development. The information needs have changed as well, as have the institutions that supply this information.

The Press as Opinion Resource During the 1968 Presidential Campaign
The study reported here analyzes campaign information presented by a sample of the national press during the last four weeks of the 1968 presidential campaign. Everywhere, regardless of geographic, demographic, or political differences, the public received an image of the ideal president based primarily on personal qualities, with little information provided on candidates' political philosophy or executive ability. There was a fairly uniform pict…
