Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Michael Breen is an award-winning fantasy author. He has a background in theatre (favorite playwrights tend to be a bit dark and Irish). He used to write simple songs with good friends and still listens to the same punk bands that he did in high school. Michael likes truthful fantasy, books that are fearless, and British TV shows. When not writing, he is usually thinking about writing or trying to figure out how a mandolin works. Michael has won the gold medal for fantasy in the 2023 Independent Publisher "IPPY" Book Awards, the gold medal for young adult fantasy in the 2023 Readers' Favorite International Book Awards, and a bronze medal in the U.K.'s Wishing Shelf Book Awards, among other accolades.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Media hostility towards politicians and the political system, and its impact on democracy, has long attracted the interest of scholars of political communication. It is also the subject of political discourse and rhetoric, with the media attracting the ire of political leaders around the globe: Donald Trump, for one, has repeatedly called journalists 'the worst people in the world.' Trump is not the first, nor will he be the last, leader to seek to focus our attention on the role of the media in electoral politics.

Resilient reporting examines how election news reporting has changed over the last half-century in Ireland by means of a unique dataset involving 25 million words from newspapers, as well as radio and television coverage. In a timely and revealing study, the authors examine reporting in terms of framing, tone, and the distribution of coverage. They also focus on how the economy has affected election coverage as well as media reporting of leaders and personalities, gender, and the effect of the commercial basis of media outlets.

The authors evaluate three broad hypotheses about Ireland’s election coverage since 1969: the extent to which the norms of critical impartiality have survived, whether the media has shifted towards hypercritical infotainment, and the extent to which content has been influenced by exogenous factors — that is, political, social, and economic factors outside the media itself.

The findings, which are drawn from a machine-learning computer system involving a huge content analysis study, will interest academics as well as politicians and policymakers internationally.
