Overview"Drawing on a wide variety of empirical methodologies, including large-scale survey analysis, survey experiments, and content analyses, Following the Ticker explores the complex relationship between stock market performance and political judgments through distinctive patterns of coverage in American news media. Building an eclectic theory that explores the interplay between media agenda-setting and partisan motivated reasoning, author Ian G. Anson helps to explain why the stock market increasingly occupies the minds of Americans when they evaluate the performance of incumbent presidents. In doing so, Following the Ticker contributes to a growing literature exploring the links between public opinion and economic inequality in American society. Because ""the stock market is not the economy,"" the increasing salience of the stock market as a source of political judgments reflects a worrying development for classic models of democratic accountability."

Table of ContentsReviews"""Every day, we're surrounded by news about the stock market. In this important book, Ian Anson examines what the growing importance of the stock market as an economic indicator, and the media's sustained focus on it, means for American politics. Focusing on the elite discourse around stock market indicators, media coverage of the stock market, and its effects on public opinion, Anson paints an important picture of how Americans perceive 'the economy' and how partisan motivated reasoning impacts these perceptions. One of the key insights of political behavior research of the past several decades has been that the economy matters for political decisions. This book helps us better understand how the perceptions of the economy are changing and how exactly they matter for our politics."" — Dominik Stecula, coauthor of We Need to Talk: How Cross-Party Dialogue Reduces Affective Polarization" Author InformationIan G.
