I am going investigate a "chicken or the egg"question.
Do people watch a certain newsstation due to prior political beliefs or do viewers gain political beliefsfrom watching that particular news station.
For example, do conservatives watch FOX News because it is more tailoredto their pre-set beliefs, or do viewers become more conservative because theywatch FOX News?
I just don't know how to conduct the experiment itself. What methods can I use to measure beliefs andhow to I keep track?
Any assistance is very much appreciated! Thank you for your time!
