Determinants of National Media Attention.
Havick, John
Journal of Communication, v47 n2 p97-111 Spr 1997
Investigates national media attention to Democratic and Republican women congressional candidates in 1990 and 1992. Finds media attention related to whether the candidates are running for the Senate or House, incumbency, and state population. Shows that party is a statistically significant factor associated with media attention, and that ethnic candidates tend to receive slightly less attention than nonethnic candidates. (SR)
