The Effects of Digital Media on Political Knowledge and Participation in Election Campaigns
While the majority of previous research suggests there are positive relationships between digital media use and political participation and knowledge, most studies have relied on cross-sectional surveys and have thus not been able to firmly establish the chain of causality. Also, there is little research investigating use of different forms of digital media and their relative effects on political participation and knowledge. This study examines (…
Public Service Media Under Pressure
The current economic crisis is global in scope, thus affecting both countries in the North and in the South. As a consequence, national European governments are modifying their policies in order to cut down on public spending. This article compares how public service media policies are shaped in this new situation in two countries that represent very contrasting models of public service media: Spain and Sweden. The story of public service media s…
Paving the way for crisis exploitation
Crises tend to be crucial political events with the ability to determine the public’s faith in political actors. If well managed, crises provide windows of opportunities for political actors to show action, strengthening credibility and pushing through new policies. This article explores one such instance of successful crisis exploitation: the Swedish government’s management of the financial crisis in 2008. During the worst turbulence, the govern…

Investigative journalism in Sweden
Do Politicians Lead the Tango
The relationship between journalists and their political sources is often described as symbiotic. Furthermore, political sources are often regarded as more powerful than journalists in this relationship. However, most of the research referred to in the international literature is done in the US or Britain. Therefore, the question regarding the relationship between journalists and their political sources, in terms of power, needs to be asked in ot…
Mismanagement, mistrust and missed opportunities
Mismanagement, mistrust and missed opportunities: a study of the 2004 tsunami and Swedish political communication : Editorial
Reporting more, informing less
The purpose of this study is to examine and compare how leading Swedish news media in television and the press covered and described the terrorist attacks in the USA on September 11 in 2001, the US attacks on Afghanistan later in 2001 and the war in Iraq in 2003. The article examines factors influencing news decisions and media ability to maintain fair news reporting. The study looks specifically at the sources that are used, the occurrence of sp…
Still the Middle Way
This article focuses on the process of hybridization of political campaigns, using Sweden as a case study, and raises three main research questions. First, how do global campaign practices influence the national campaign context in Sweden? Second, how does the Swedish political structure and political culture influence the adaptation of global trends in this area? Third, how can a possible hybridization of political campaigning be characterized i…
Making Sense of Different Types of Crises
How did the Swedish media coverage of the terror attacks against the United States and the U.S. attacks in Afghanistan differ when it came to the use of sources, speculations, and anti-American and anti-Muslim reporting? That is the central question in this study. The results show that the Swedish media coverage of the terror attacks and the war in Afghanistan differed in many respects. There are many reasons for this, but one main explanation ma…
