The rise of the modern Internet and social media platforms have allowed for the proliferation of alternative media across society in ways that were not possible twenty years ago. Today, alternative media have become more intertwined with mainstream media and have become increasingly relevant in mainstream political communication. Contributors focus on three primary sites where such media seem to have established growing influence in recent years: political parties, mainstream political news, and the production of participatory media that allow for engagement. Scholars of communication, political science, sociology, and media studies will find this collection useful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: Comparing Progressive and Conservative Audiences for Alternative Media and Their Attitudes Towards Journalism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: No More Ideological Gatekeepers?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Narrowmobilization and Tea Party Activism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Activist Speak at the Republican Debates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Alternative Press Coverage of the 2016 Election\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Satirical News as Alternative Journalism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Mainstream Coverage of Alternative Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: Alternative Media and Journalistic Boundary Work\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: Hybridized Political Participation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: Rhetorics of Resistance in a World of Fake News","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040842711383,"sku":"9781498584364","price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781498584364.jpg?v=1750948025","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/alternative-media-meets-mainstream-politics-9781498584364","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
