CASSEN Guilhem (University of Namur) : Political Determinants of the News Market: Novel Data and Quasi-Experimental. Evidence from India
Julia Cagé (Sciences Po), Francesca Jensenius (University of Oslo)
Résumé
Information conveyed through news media influences political behavior. But to what extent are media markets themselves shaped by political determinants? We build a novel panel dataset of newspaper markets in India from 2002 to 2017 to measure the impact of changes in apportionment on how news markets develop over time. We exploit the announcement of an exogenous change in the boundaries of electoral constituencies to causally identify the relationship between the (future) apportionment of news markets and the change in the number and circulation of newspapers. Using an event-study, a staggered difference-in-differences approach and placebos, we show that markets that became more electorally important experienced a significant rise in both circulation and the number of titles per capita. We document how effects vary with prior levels of political competition and newspapers’ characteristics, and discuss implications for voting behavior and democratic accountability.
