Abstract

Secondary analysis of panel data found, after controlling for prior belief and many covariates, that 2011 Fox News viewing was negatively related to belief in global warming in 2016 and 2019, while MSNBC, broadcast news, and political comedy viewing in 2016 and CNN in 2019 had positive relationships. Partisan belief gaps in 2016 widened with CNN viewing and narrowed with viewing broadcast news, Fox News (especially with higher knowledge) and MSNBC (especially with lower knowledge), while political comedy viewing was associated both with wider (with lower knowledge) and narrower gaps (with higher knowledge). Implications for practice and theory are discussed.

全球变暖信仰中的电视新闻、政治喜剧、政党和政治知识：来自大规模小组调查的证据

对面板数据的二次分析发现，在控制了先前的信念和许多协变量后，2011年福克斯新闻的收视率与2016年和2019年对全球变暖的信念呈负相关，而2016年MSNBC、广播新闻和政治喜剧的收视率以及2019年CNN的收视率呈正相关。2016年，党派信仰差距随着美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）的观看而扩大，随着广播新闻、福克斯新闻（尤其是知识含量较高的新闻）和微软全国广播公司（尤其是信息含量较低的新闻）的观看缩小，而政治喜剧的观看则与更大（知识含量较低）和更窄（知识含量较高）的差距有关。讨论了对实践和理论的启示。
