What’s in a Cue? Decoding Political Values in Applauded Statements From Ukraine’s Leading Political Talk Shows
Experimental studies show that public opinion cues shape people’s perceptions of public opinion. However, the full extent of political information these cues comprise and, consequently, communicate remains unexplored. This study utilizes standardized content analysis to examine the political values in applauded statements ( n = 1,722) from Ukraine’s major political talk shows. The results suggest that applauded statements embody a complex mix of …
“This is Part of Everything that is Wrong with the World” – A Comparative Analysis of Sustainability Framing in Social Media Discussions About Food in Five Countries
Current western food systems are attested to be clearly unsustainable – but are people aware of this in their everyday life as they deal with the food offerings of their preferred supermarkets? To discover which links people actually make between the ecological, economical, and social impacts of the food systems and their personal food choices, our comparative, qualitative content analysis looks at everyday discussions on Facebook pages of superm…
Conceptualizing different forms of news processing following incidental news contact: A triple-path model
Research on incidental news exposure in the context of social media focuses on ‘successful’ incidental news exposure – when unintended news contacts result in active engagement and knowledge gains. However, we lack both theoretical and empirical approaches to the far more likely case that people keep on scrolling through their newsfeed without any post triggering active engagement. To fill this gap, the article conceptualizes a triple-path model …
Between Guilt and Obligation: Debating the Responsibility for Climate Change and Climate Politics in the Media
The “common but differentiated responsibility” of developed and developing countries to mitigate climate change is a core principle of international climate politics—but there is disagreement about what this “differentiated responsibility” amounts to. We investigate how newspapers in developed countries (Australia, Germany, United States) and emerging economies (Brazil, India) covered this debate during the UN climate summits in 2004, 2009, and 2…
Pseudo-discursive, mobilizing, emotional, and entertaining: Identifying four successful communication styles of political actors on social media during the 2015 Swiss national elections
Political actors are adapting their communication styles to the network media logic of social media platforms with varying success. This study investigates the communication styles used during the Swiss national election 2015 and their success in triggering digital reactions. In a quantitative content analysis of the “top 20” most reacted to messages on Facebook (n = 2170) and Twitter (N = 1796) of 246 Swiss parliamentarians and 11 parties we ana…

Intra-Campaign Changes in Voting Preferences: The Impact of Media and Party Communication
An increasing number of citizens change and adapt their party preferences during the electoral campaign. We analyze which short-term factors explain intra-campaign changes in voting preferences, focusing on the visibility and tone of news media reporting and party canvassing. Our analyses rely on an integrative data approach, linking data from media content analysis to public opinion data. This enables us to investigate the relative impact of new…
Followers, Spread the Message! Predicting the Success of Swiss Politicians on Facebook and Twitter
Politicians have been criticized for not exploiting the deliberative potential of social media platforms. We complement previous definitions of politicians' success on social media through the lens of network media logic: Despite the lack of deliberation, some succeed in building large digital followerships, which spread their messages via reactions through the network. Analyzing a data set of personal, structural, and social media characteristic…
Perceptions of Climate Change Imagery: Evoked Salience and Self-Efficacy in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria
Prevalent in mass media worldwide, climate change imagery appears to be similar across countries. Replicating a study from the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia, we analyze whether these images are perceived in similar ways cross-nationally by studying Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. A total of 75 respondents sorted images with respect to their perceptions of salience and self-efficacy (Q method). They associated images of climate c…
Intermedia agenda-setting in a multimedia news environment
This article analyzes intermedia agenda-setting processes during a national election campaign of 38 newspapers, online news sites, TV news programs, as well as a wire service, through semi-automatic content analysis and time series analysis. The theoretical assumption was that intermedia agenda-setting is determined by the production structures of certain media types, the opinion-leader role of specific media outlets, and issue-specific character…

Explaining cosmopolitan coverage
Research on international news flows has mostly aimed to explain why certain countries and regions are more reported on than others. There are few studies, however, on the reasons why some media outlets cover foreign affairs more intensively than others. This article thus extends our current knowledge by mapping different degrees of cosmopolitan coverage and identifying key conditions that help to explain these differences. Analysing foreign repo…
Localizing The Daily Show: The heute show in Germany
The recent success of the heute show, a German adaptation of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, on the one hand exemplifies how in this globalized age a foreign format can successfully be adapted to a country's own political, cultural, and journalistic context, even in a genre as notoriously culture-bound as political satire. On the other hand this success story also illustrates how perceptions of political satire appear to have shifted in Germany,…

Let's Talk about Europe: Why Europeanization Shows a Different Face in Different Newspapers
■ This article contributes to the ongoing quest for a European public sphere understood as a structural transformation of national public debates. This process of Europeanization of national public spheres has a vertical and a horizontal dimension: an increased focus on the EU as well as more attention to other European countries. A content analysis of quality newspapers in five EU member states covering a period of 20 years reveals common trends…
Segmented Europeanization
This chapter explores the structural transformation of national public spheres in Europe since the beginning of the 1980s by drawing on our long-term, cross-issue content analysis. We seek to answer three questions: (1) Is there a trend towards transnationalization of national public spheres in Europe? Here we will look at three of our four dimensions of transnationalization over time: monitoring governance, discursive integration and collective …
Differential Europeanization: Explaining Vertical and Horizontal Europeanization in the Quality Press
In the preceding chapter we concluded from the results of our quantitative long-term cross-sectional content analysis that the Europeanization of public spheres has hitherto remained limited to a single dimension: the monitoring of EU governance. A truly integrated European public sphere in which public debate actually transcends national borders has not yet developed. However, while the overall result is similar for all newspapers, a detailed an…
Together We Fight? Europe’s Debate over the Legitimacy of Military Interventions
This chapter explores the Europeanization of public spheres in a highly contested area of European integration: the use of military force. It probes into the emergence of a common European security discourse as a‘hard case’ of Europeanization and analyses the ways in which speakers in the media have legitimized the use of force, changed domestic norms regarding the deployment of troops, and shifted national security identities in the wake of a ne…
The Transnationalization of Public Spheres: Theoretical Considerations
The transnationalization of public spheres can best be understood within the context of more encompassing transformations of the state. Since the late 1960s and early 1970s the nation-states of the OECD world — among them, of course, the growing number of member states of the European Union — have been in a process of continuous transformation (Zürn and Leibfried 2005; Hurrelmann et al. 2007). It is unclear as of now whether this incremental chan…
Analysing Europeanization: The Research Framework
In the previous chapter we developed a complex and multifarious model of the transnationalization of public spheres from both an empirical and a normative viewpoint. But how can such an ambitious model be translated into empirical research? The following chapter answers this question by describing and explaining the research design we employed to measure the transnationalization of public spheres. The first part of the chapter shows how the overa…
Conclusion
The empirical insights gained from our study move the research frontier forward in a number of ways. In this chapter we condense and highlight the most important findings before evaluating them in the light of our normative considerations. We begin by reviewing the trend results that mostly come out of the cross-issue content analysis; these cover the analytical dimensions monitoring governance, discursive integration and collective identificatio…

National and transnational public spheres: The case of the EU
While many important social processes cut across national borders and have transnational institutions to regulate them, democratic participation still occurs almost exclusively within individual nation states. Public information and debate are essential ingredients of democracy, and their confinement to the individual national public sphere threatens the democratic aspirations and legitimacy of transnational institutions. Therefore, it is often a…
