| Abstract: | Media salience is a singular construct to the key independent variable in agenda-setting research. This media salience -term has been measured and defined by using a number of different empirical indicatios and conceptualizations. This article introduces a model of media salience. Main suggestion behind this model is that a multidimensional contract consists of three core elements: attention, valence and prominence. Practical examples are from New York Times; the author of this article tested the model - an exploratory factor analysis coverage of 8 major political issues - during the 2000 presidential election. For future investigations 2 indices are created to measure the construct. |
