In \u003cem\u003eTyping Politics\u003c\/em\u003e, Richard Davis provides a comprehensive yet concise assessment of the growing role played by political blogs and their relationship with the mainstream media. Through a detailed content analysis of the most popular political blogs--Daily Kos, Instapundit, Michelle Malkin, and Wonkette--he shows the degree to which blogs influence the traditional news media. Specifically, he compares the content of these blogs to four leading newspapers noted for their political coverage: \u003cem\u003eThe Washington Post, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eThe Washington Times\u003c\/em\u003e. He explains how political journalists at these papers use blogs to inform their reportage and analyzes general attitudes about the role of blogs in journalism. Drawing on a national survey of political blog readers, Davis concludes with a novel assessment of the blog audience. Compact, accessible, and well-researched, \u003cem\u003eTyping Politics\u003c\/em\u003e will be an invaluable contribution to the literature on a phenomenon that has reshaped the landscape of political communication.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47610013188247,"sku":"9780195373752","price":2900.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780195373752.webp?v=1775061165","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/typing-politics-the-role-of-blogs-in-american-politics-9780195373752","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
