Politicized Immigrant Identity, Spanish-Language Media, and Political Mobilization in 2012 Politicized Immigrant Identity, Spanish-Language Media, and Political Mobilization in 2012 Sergio I. Garcia-Rios, Matt A. Barreto RSF: The Russell Sage Foundation Journal of the Social Sciences, Volume 2, Number 3, June 2016, pp. 78-96 (Article) Published by Russell Sage Foundation For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/625098 [ Access provided at 28 Sep 2021 21:40 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] Politicized Immigrant Identity, Spanish- Language Media, and Political Mobilization in 2012 sergio i. garcia-­Rios and matt a. barreto Social identity theorists have long studied identity as one of the prime determinants of behavior. However, political scientists have had a hard time identifying consistent patterns between ethnic identity and political participation, especially among immigrants. In this paper, we take a more complex approach and explore whether a sense of immigrant linked fate is salient in explaining political participation among immigrants and, further, what may have caused immigrant identity to become so politicized. Specifically, we look at the issue of immigration reform in 2011 and 2012, and the manner in which both positive and negative mes- sages were a catalyst for a politicized immigrant identity, and the resulting mobilizing effects. Using the 2012 Latino Immigrant National Election Study data, we argue that exposure to Spanish- language news media and feelings of immigrant-linked fate created a politicized immigrant identity among Latino immi- grants, which resulted in greater political participation and civic engagement. Rather than seeing immi- grants as low- resourced and unengaged in American politics, our theory of politicized immigrant identity explains that Latino immigrants draw on their identity as immigrants and as Americans to participate in their new homeland.

  • WHY COMPETITION in the POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA a Strategy for Reinvigorating Our Democracy
    SEPTEMBER 2017 WHY COMPETITION IN THE POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA A strategy for reinvigorating our democracy Katherine M. Gehl and Michael E. Porter ABOUT THE AUTHORS Katherine M. Gehl, a business leader and former CEO with experience in government, began, in the last decade, to participate actively in politics—first in traditional partisan politics. As she deepened her understanding of how politics actually worked—and didn’t work—for the public interest, she realized that even the best candidates and elected officials were severely limited by a dysfunctional system, and that the political system was the single greatest challenge facing our country. She turned her focus to political system reform and innovation and has made this her mission. Michael E. Porter, an expert on competition and strategy in industries and nations, encountered politics in trying to advise governments and advocate sensible and proven reforms. As co-chair of the multiyear, non-partisan U.S. Competitiveness Project at Harvard Business School over the past five years, it became clear to him that the political system was actually the major constraint in America’s inability to restore economic prosperity and address many of the other problems our nation faces. Working with Katherine to understand the root causes of the failure of political competition, and what to do about it, has become an obsession. DISCLOSURE This work was funded by Harvard Business School, including the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness and the Division of Research and Faculty Development. No external funding was received. Katherine and Michael are both involved in supporting the work they advocate in this report.

  • Judy Woodruff Elected Trustee of the Duke Endowment
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Jeri Krentz, Associate Director of Communications The Duke Endowment 704.927.2260; [email protected] www.dukeendowment.org Judy Woodruff Elected Trustee of The Duke Endowment CHARLOTTE, NC – Judy Woodruff, co-anchor and senior correspondent for The PBS NewsHour, has been elected a Trustee of The Duke Endowment. A longtime journalist, Woodruff has covered politics and other news for CNN, NBC and PBS. She graduated from Duke University, and served as a member of the university’s Board of Trustees from 1985-1997. She was a visiting professor at Duke University’s Terry Sanford Institute of Public Policy, teaching a course on media and politics, and she was a visiting fellow at Harvard University’s Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy. Based in Charlotte, N.C., and established in 1924 by N.C. industrialist and philanthropist James B. Duke, The Duke Endowment is the largest private foundation in the Southeast. “When Mr. Duke created the Endowment, he wanted its Trustees to be ‘persons of character and ability,’ and Judy Woodruff surely fits that description,” said Minor Shaw, the Endowment’s board chair. “She holds strong ties to the Carolinas, and her background will bring a unique perspective to our board.” Woodruff, a native of Tulsa, studied at Meredith College in Raleigh, and then at Duke University in Durham. She began her journalism career at a CBS affiliate in Atlanta before joining NBC News, where she served as White House correspondent from 1977 to 1982. She then served as chief Washington correspondent for the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour before joining CNN to anchor the weekday program “Inside Politics.” While at PBS, she anchored the weekly series “Frontline with Judy Woodruff.” Woodruff returned to the NewsHour in 2007 as a senior correspondent and frequent co-anchor.

    Spatial Competition in Cable News: Where Are Larry King and O’Reilly located in Latent Attribute Space? Bharat Anandy Dmitri Byzalovz Harvard Business School Harvard University June 2008 VERY PRELIMINARY Abstract . We are grateful to Rafael Di Tella, Julie Holland-Mortimer, Felix Oberholzer-Gee, Ariel Pakes, Ron Shachar, and seminar participants for helpful conversations. Anand gratefully acknowledge the …nancial support from the Division of Research at Harvard Business School. [email protected], (617)-495-5082. [email protected], (617)-529-3805. 1 1. Introduction There has been a growing public debate around the existence and consequences of bias in the media. Accompanying this has been a recent explosion in the academic literature on media bias. Starting with Mullainathan and Shleifer’s analysis of factors that can result in news “slant”, there have been various theoretical papers that try to explain why bias might even arise as an equilibrium phenomenon (see Baron 2004 and 2006; Stromberg 2004, Gentzkow and Shapiro 2006, Anand et al 2007). Various papers examine both supply-side reasons and demand-side forces. At the same time, the data on which this debate, and literature, is grounded has until recently remained rather anecdotal. Some books describe a liberal bias (Bias [Bernard Goldberg, 2001], Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right [Ann Coulter, 2002], South Park Conservatives: A Revolt Against Liberal Bias [Brian Anderson, 2005]), others a conservative bias (What Liberal Media [Eric Alterman, 2005], Lies and Lying Liars who Tell Them [Al Franken, 2007], Blinded by the Right [David Brock, 2007]). Interestingly, even these authors of best-selling books acknowledge the lack of any hard data on the subject1.
