Two online experiments …

The present study examines the interactive roles of hostile media perception (HMP) and third-person perception (TPP) on political participation. In the context of partisan news and polarized politics, an online experiment (N = 811) found that partisan source cues (in-group vs. out-group news sources) and content slants (pro-attitudinal vs. counter-attitudinal news stories) led to HMP separately, but they did not interact. Next, HMP enhanced polit…

By relying on social network a…
