Listen to NPR’s “The Politics of Late-Night TV”:

Read “Talk Show Democracy” from the CQ Researcher (you can read the whole thing if you go through your online textbook which has the article in the chapter) – if you can only read the introduction, that is okay – you get the brief jist of the argument.

QUESTION:

 

Think about the current state of journalism in the U.S.  Do you think the media is generally making a positive or negative contribution to Democracy? – in what ways?  How much do you think the “institutional norms” developed by Cook and discussed in the lecture hold true in the current paradigm?   Would you consider the media a fourth branch?  Is it a successful “watchdog”?   What can you say about citizen perceptions of media legitimacy?. REFERENCE AT LEAST THREE OF THE OF THE FIVE ARTICLES IN ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS
