  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • California Desert Protection Act, S.21, to the Senate in January 1992
    Rnvirons Vol 16. No.2 The California Desert Protection Act by Annette Feldman The California Desert Protection Act (CDPA) is arguably the most extensive and ecologically significant environmental legislation Congress will consider in 1993. Under the stated purpose of providing "lasting protection for the beauty and wildness of public lands in the California desert" (S.21 102d Cong., 2d Sess. Sec. 2 (1992)), the CDPA encompasses and affects over 7 million acres of mostly federally-owned Southern California desertland. The Act designates three new national parks and over 4.4 additional million acres of protected wilderness area. Although political controversy has plagued the CDPA, Democratic victories in the November 1992 election should expedite the Act's passage in 1993, seven years after Sen. Alan Cranston (D-Ca) first introduced the Act in 1986. The California Desert The CDPA protects three geologically and ecologically unique desert ecosystems. Two of these, the "low" Colorado Desert and the "high" Mojave Desert, are unique to Southern California. The third, part of a greater western "inland sea", is the Central Californian "cold" Great Basin Desert. The major desert biological communities to be protected are: blackbrush scrub and sagebrush scrub (Great Basin); shadscale scrub (Great Basin and Mojave); Alkali sink (all three Deserts); Joshua Tree woodland (Mojave); cactus scrub, saltbrush scrub, desert wash, and palm oasis (Colorado); and Creosote bush scrub (Mojave and Colorado). "King Clone", a 67 ft.-diameter Creosote Clone finds its home in the Mojave Desert and is one of the Earth's oldest living organisms, having been carbon-14 dated at 11,700 years old.
