Media comparison studies are many and widespread since the 1950s (for instance Schramm 1959, Kayser 1953, International Press Institute 1954, Joseph 1959, McFadden 1953, Merril 1957, etc.). One of the last theorizations about how to compare media systems is the classification Hallin and Mancini (2004) made of several Western countries according to criteria based on the countries’ political framework, media markets, and other factors determining a media system, an approach that has helped selecting the countries for the present study. |
