The Role of The Daily News in Shaping Public Perception of Political Events in
2024
1. INTRODUCTION
The role of newspapers in shaping public perception is critical in a democratic society,
where informed citizens are essential for effective governance. This research examines
how The Daily News influences public attitudes toward political events in 2024. The
selection of The Daily News is significant due to its wide readership and its historical
reputation for comprehensive political coverage. This study aims to investigate the
patterns of political reporting in the newspaper, focusing on the agendas set by the
editorial choices made in news coverage. By analyzing various dimensions, such as the
themes, tone, and frequency of political stories, the research seeks to uncover how
these elements contribute to shaping readers' perceptions and opinions. Understanding
the agenda-setting role of The Daily News will provide insights into the broader
implications of media influence on political discourse and public opinion formation,
particularly in a time of rapid political change and polarization.
