Klappentext How the 2016 news media environment allowed Trump to win the presidency Words That Matter assesses how the news media covered the extraordinary 2016 election and, more important, what information--true, false, or somewhere in between--actually helped voters make up their minds. Using journalists' real-time tweets and published news coverage of campaign events, along with Gallup polling data measuring how voters perceived that reporting, the book traces the flow of information from candidates and their campaigns to journalists and to the public. Zusammenfassung Assesses how the news media covered the extraordinary 2016 US presidential election and! more importantly! what information - true! false! or somewhere in between - actually helped voters make up their minds. The evidence uncovered shows how Donald Trump's victory! and Hillary Clinton's loss! resulted in large part from how the news media responded to these two unique candidates.
