This Element provides a comprehensive review of the existing literature on content, antecedents, and consequences of economic news coverage. It critically examines and refines prominent assumptions and hypotheses in this field, drawing upon communication science theories such as framing, news values, and media dependency theories.
To begin, we outline and explain the mechanisms through which media cover the economy. We examine how media frames economic news, emphasizing the selection of specific topics, narratives, and perspectives that shape public understanding and interpretation. We also explore the role of news values, such as relevance, novelty, and conflict, in determining the prominence and coverage of economic news.
Furthermore, we demonstrate that economic news coverage goes beyond merely reporting on the state of the economy. It has a profound impact on economic perceptions and political attitudes of citizens, as well as on political decision-makers and the reputation of a wide range of organizations, including media outlets themselves.
In conclusion, this Element provides a valuable contribution to the literature on economic news coverage. It sheds light on the complex processes through which media shape economic perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors, and highlights the broader societal implications of economic news reporting. By refining and testing existing assumptions and hypotheses, this research contributes to our understanding of the role of media in shaping economic outcomes and public discourse.
