Abstract
Description
Political ads, by definition, raise questions about public issues that the candidates think will resonate with voters. Given these circumstances, an obvious question is to what extent are
those public issues covered by the local news operations of the stations on which the ads appear. This study examined that question in the Honolulu, HI television market during the 2012 campaign.
