Can partisan media polarize?Â
Scholars have often argued about whether the media is to blame for high levels of polarization among the American public. For example, are the messages portrayed on Fox News or MSNBC pushing us farther apart in our political views? Read through Matthew Levendusky’s research on polarization and the media (“Are Fox and MSN polarizing†and “Levendusky_Partisan Mediaâ€). I even posted a video of him talking about this topic “Do partisan media polarize America?â€
What is his conclusion? Do you agree with his argument? Why or why not? Is the media to blame for high levels of polarization?
