What gets media attention and how media attention evolves over time: Large-scale empirical evidence from 196 countries

It is known that news topics, covered more frequently and over longer periods of time, are considered to be important to the public. Hence, what gets media attention and how me- dia attention evolves over time has been studied for decades in communication study. However, previous studies are con- fi...

Hence, what gets media attention and how me- dia attention evolves over time has been studied for decades in communication study. However, previous studies are con- fined to a few countries or a few topics, mainly due to lack of longitudinal global data. In this work, we use a large-scale news data compiled from 196 countries to provide empirical analyses of media attention dynamics. 2017-05-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/sis_research/6092 https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/context/sis_research/article/7095/viewcontent/1704.01425.pdf http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems eng Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University Empirical analysis Global data Media attention News topics Computer Sciences

description It is known that news topics, covered more frequently and over longer periods of time, are considered to be important to the public. Hence, what gets media attention and how me- dia attention evolves over time has been studied for decades in communication study. However, previous studies are con- fined to a few countries or a few topics, mainly due to lack of longitudinal global data. In this work, we use a large-scale news data compiled from 196 countries to provide empirical analyses of media attention dynamics.
