TL;DR: This paper conducted preregistered replications of 28 classic and contemporary published findings, with protocols that were peer reviewed in advance, to examine variation in effect magnitudes across samples and settings, and found that very little heterogeneity was attributable to the order in which the tasks were performed or whether the task were administered in lab versus online.

TL;DR: This paper proposed a context-dependent approach to the study of political information by combining a content analysis of broadcast news with a national survey measuring public awareness of various events, issues, and individuals in the news.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine whether exposure to public versus commercial news influences the knowledge citizens possess about current affairs, both domestically and internationally, and test, using propensity score analysis, whether there is variation across public service broadcasters in this regard.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative study of news media's role in serving the functions associated with democratic citizenship, the authors identify differences between countries in the sources quoted in the news, establish whether there are consistent differences across countries between types of media in their sourcing patterns, and trace any emergent consistent patterns of variation between different types of organization across different countries.

TL;DR: Data show that online news consumption is systematically and consistently related to perceived polarization, but not to attitude polarization, understood as individual attitude extremity.
