"Gatekeeping, Technology, and Polarization" published on by Oxford University Press.

"This chapter reviews the literature on the visibility of politicians, parties and political candidates in the news media and the way they are presented in political coverage. Starting with the question who is covered (visibility), the following sections provide an overview of different aspects of how actors are covered, focusing on authenticity, negativity, and personalization. Furthermore, studies analyzing the composition of the news media's issue agenda are discussed. While the review shows a predominance of high-ranked political actors, a shrinking of sound-bites, and a substantial overlap between the issue agenda of the media and politicians or parties, no overarching trend toward more negativity, personalization, and process news can be found in the literature. Several reasons for these findings as well as the impact of contextual factors and differences between media outlets are discussed." (publisher's description)
