We'll explore the major roles of the media today in providing news, informing voters, shaping public opinion, and influencing public policy. We'll also look at how government officials use the media to both campaign and govern. Some attention will be devoted to government regulation of the media, the constitutional protection of a free press, and ethical issues concerning the media in the political environment.
