摘要

摘要城市化导致了许多重要职能的集中，包括媒体部门。以瑞典为例，53%的记者现在居住在首都斯德哥尔摩地区。28年来，地方编辑部的数量从668个减少到273个。这种媒体集中有什么影响？PEW研究所最近在美国发布的一份报告显示，农村社区有一种与媒体报道脱节的感觉。在本文中，我们假设缺乏当地编辑部会导致当地新闻（无论是印刷形式还是在线形式）的消费减少。同样，我们还测试了当地新闻消费是否因当地记者减少而减少。根据瑞典2006年和2013年的精细数据，我们的分析结果表明，一个市镇的编辑办公室的存在与当地报纸的消费没有显著关系，但居住在该市镇的就业记者的可及性是。

Geography and consumption of local media

ABSTRACT Urbanization has led to the centralization of many important functions, including the media sector. In the case of Sweden, 53% of journalists now live in the capital region of Stockholm. The number of local editorial offices has shrunk from 668 to 273 in 28 years. What impact does this media centralization have? A recent report from the U.S. by the PEW Institute shows that rural communities experience a sense of being disconnected from what is being reported by the media. In this paper, we hypothesize that the lack of a local editorial office can lead to a lower consumption of local news (either in print form or online). Similarly, we also test if local news consumption decreases due to having fewer local journalists. Based on fine level data for Sweden in 2006 and in 2013, the results of our analysis suggest that the existence of an editorial office in a municipality is not significantly related to the consumption of local newspapers, but that accessibility to employed journalists who live in the municipality is.
