    A Paradox of the Red States and Blue States: Federal Spending and Electoral Votes in the 2000 U.S. Presidential Election Dean Lacy Ohio State University and Hoover Institution Until June 30, 2002: National Fellows Program Hoover Institution Stanford, CA 94305-6010 Phone: 650-725-3432 Email: [email protected] July 1, 2002 -- 2140 Derby Hall, 154 N. Oval Mall Columbus, OH 43210-1373 Phone: 614-292-9648 Email: [email protected] March 2, 2002 Abstract: Thirty of the U.S. states reap more in federal spending than their citizens contribute to the federal government in taxes. The other 20 states provide more in taxes than they receive in spending. In the 2000 U.S. presidential election, George W. Bush won most of the states that are net beneficiaries of federal spending programs, while Al Gore won most of the states that are net contributors to federal spending. A state’s ratio of federal spending to tax dollars, particularly non-defense spending, is a statistically and substantively significant predictor of Bush’s margin of victory across the states. A state’s per capita federal tax burden is also associated with the election result: states with higher tax burdens gave higher vote margins to Gore. Compared to Clinton’s state-by-state vote shares in 1996, Gore did worse in states that gained in federal spending per tax dollar from 1998 to 2000. In the wake of the 2000 U. S. presidential election, pundits and journalists have written much about the ”Two Americas:” The red states on the Electoral College map that voted for George W.

  • Targeted Sampling from Massive Block Model Graphs with Personalized Pagerank∗
    Targeted sampling from massive block model graphs with personalized PageRank∗ Fan Chen1, Yini Zhang2, and Karl Rohe1 1Department of Statistics 2School of Journalism and Mass Communication University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA Abstract This paper provides statistical theory and intuition for Personalized PageRank (PPR), a popular technique that samples a small community from a massive network. We study a setting where the entire network is expensive to thoroughly obtain or maintain, but we can start from a seed node of interest and \crawl" the network to find other nodes through their connections. By crawling the graph in a designed way, the PPR vector can be approximated without querying the entire massive graph, making it an alternative to snowball sampling. Using the degree-corrected stochastic block model, we study whether the PPR vector can select nodes that belong to the same block as the seed node. We provide a simple and interpretable form for the PPR vector, highlighting its biases towards high degree nodes outside of the target block. We examine a simple adjustment based on node degrees and establish consistency results for PPR clustering that allows for directed graphs. These results are enabled by recent technical advances showing the element-wise convergence of eigenvectors. We illustrate the method with the massive Twitter friendship graph, which we crawl using the Twitter API. We find that (i) the adjusted and unadjusted PPR techniques are complementary approaches, where the adjustment makes the results particularly localized around the seed node and (ii) the bias adjustment greatly benefits from degree regularization. Keywords Community detection; Degree-corrected stochastic block model; Local clustering; Network sampling; Personalized PageRank arXiv:1910.12937v2 [cs.SI] 1 Jul 2020 1 Introduction Much of the literature on graph sampling has treated the entire graph, or all of the people in it, as the target population.

The narrative started when a Pulitzer Prize winning professor was caught foisting bogus Vietnam War exploits as background for classroom discussion.1 His fantasy lapse pref- aced a more serious irregularity—the author of the Bancroft Prize book award was accused of falsifying key research documents.2 The award was rescinded. The year reached a crescendo with two plagiarism cases “that shook the history profession to its core.”3 Stephen Ambrose and Doris Kearns Goodwin were “crossover” celeb- rities: esteemed academics—Pulitzer winners—with careers embellished by a public intellectual reputation.

  • Speaking in Worcester, Mike Barnicle Decries Trend in Politics
    Speaking in Worcester, Mike Barnicle decries trend in politics By Mark Sullivan CORRESPONDENT WORCESTER — President Obama has an "impossible job," veteran print and broadcast journalist Mike Barnicle said Wednesday after a presidential visit to the city. Both the business of politics and the business of journalism have changed over the past 20 years and not for the better, Mr. Barnicle, a former longtime columnist for The Boston Globe, now a regular on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," said in an interview before speaking at a dinner of the Worcester Economic Club at the College of the Holy Cross. "I don't think either business is as good as it used to be," said Mr. Barnicle, in Worcester on the same day as President Obama, who was the commencement speaker at Worcester Technical High School four miles across town. "Politics used to be a lot better because things actually got done," said the Worcester-born journalist, who rose to prominence for his social and political commentary as a columnist for the Globe from 1973 to 1998. In today's "age of polarization," Mr. Barnicle said, "many members of Congress don't know one another. They sit on opposite sides of the aisle, they lead separate lives, they don't know one another's families. They're governed by the money in politics; they're always campaigning." The newspaper business likewise isn't what it was, said Mr. Barnicle, who recalled running down City Hall news items as a Fitchburg teenager for the Telegram & Gazette's northern Worcester County bureau. "Now you get news everywhere," he said.

  • Outbreak of Fiction Is Alarming News
    Outbreak of Fiction is Alarming News Howard Kurtz The Washington Post June 29, 1998 A casual observer surveying the media landscape in recent weeks might be tempted to ask: What in tarnation is going on? The New Republic fires a hot young writer for fabricating parts of 27 articles. The Boston Globe dumps a popular columnist for making up characters and quotes. CNN and Time come under hostile fire for a questionable report alleging that American troops once used nerve gas in Laos. And, in the latest embarrassment yesterday, the Cincinnati Enquirer fires a reporter, apologizes to Chiquita Brands for "deceitful, unethical and unlawful conduct" and agrees to pay the company more than $10 million. Are these isolated incidents that just happened to erupt around the same time? Or do they suggest something larger about the journalistic culture? One common theme in these mounting embarrassments is the desire to make a big splash in the roiling waters of media competition. Another is the failure of top news executives to heed warning signs until it's too late. Take the case of Patricia Smith, the Globe columnist who has admitted making things up. Turns out that Globe editors first saw evidence that Smith was writing fiction nearly three years ago, but failed to act on it. There were, Assistant Managing Editor Walter Robinson told his paper, "a large number of columns" that he feared "contained falsehoods." The problem, says Globe Editor Matthew Storin, is that similar questions had been raised about his star columnist, Mike Barnicle -- who, unlike Smith, is white.
