Thesis (M.A.)--University of Southern California, 2003.

In the past extra-governmental policy research organizations, known colloquially as think tanks, subscribed to the scientific ethos of impartiality. As such, they were an excellent source of expert opinion for journalists covering complicated issues of domestic and foreign policy. Today, however, many think tanks openly espouse an identifiable political ideology. Thus one would assume journalists take particular care to point this out when quoting them. Building on earlier research in this topic area, a content analysis of five major newspapers from 1992 to 2002, however, revealed the opposite. Reporters tended to avoid political labels. Moreover, confusing and contradictory descriptors proved common. Incorporated in the findings is a brief history of think tanks in the United States, as well as statements from prominent journalists and think tank fellows.Subjects--Topical Terms:
