Thanks for sharing your wonderful research, Abby! I will keep this lens in mind as more media coverage of Sarah Palin’s new campaign comes out!

Abby - Having recently benefitted from the Great Decisions presentation on truth in the media, I was equally benefitted from reading about your work. Like others, I am curious about how/if your findings would differ if using media sources across the partisan spectrum. I also wonder if female candidates across the board are portrayed differently by media that is not in their partisan camp. If you're not going far away () perhaps you could present this to the League of Women Voters? Critical thinking skills are so needed these days as consumers of news outlets. Big congratulations!!!
