COMM 4510 - Communication and Public Opinion

3
The purpose of this course is to provide an overview of the concept of “public opinion” and to explore the relationships between communication and public opinion. An important normative goal will be to explore ways to allow media messages to contribute to a healthy civic life rather than deviate from it.
