Media Bias Effects explores how media bias shapes public opinion and impacts trust in democratic institutions.
It examines different forms of bias, such as framing and agenda-setting, revealing how these distortions influence our understanding of critical issues.
For example, the book analyzes how biased reporting on climate change can affect public perception.
This is especially relevant today, as misinformation spreads rapidly through social media and erodes faith in traditional news sources.
The book's approach is unique, combining theoretical analysis with empirical evidence.
It progresses by first establishing a foundation of understanding media bias, then analyzing specific cases of biased reporting, and finally exploring practical implications and solutions.
By connecting communication studies with political science and sociology, Media Bias Effects offers a comprehensive view of how media narratives shape social identities and political attitudes.
Ultimately, it aims to equip readers with the tools to critically evaluate media sources and engage in more informed discussions.
