In , Gadi Wolfsfeld introduces readers to the most important concepts for examining the interrelationship of media and politics. Five major principles are used to summarize the major arguments:
  • Political power can usually be translated into power over all forms of media.
  • When the powerful lose control over the political environment, they also lose control over all forms of media.
  • Every political story that appears in every form of media is biased.
  • All forms of media are primarily dedicated to telling good stories, which can have a major impact on political processes.
  • Many of the most important effects of the various forms of media on citizens tend to be unintentional and unnoticed.
  • Up-to-date coverage of major political events in the last decade, including the landmark US elections of 2016 and 2020.
  • Devotes more attention to the "hybrid media system" that has developed over the last decade, providing a greater balance between traditional "news" and social media in particular.
  • Includes more cross-national research, especially in non-Western and non-democratic countries.
  • Refines the five principles of political communication to better reflect contemporary media trends.
  • Covers key emerging topics including misinformation and threats to democratic institutions, new forms of political engagement, and the economic base of the various forms of media.
