Description:

The Media Election Surveys have been conducted since 1979 at the University of Gothenburg and have since been managed by Kent Asp, now at the Department of Journalism, Media and Communication. The surveys have been used to explore the election coverage in press, radio and TV, its relevance for the election result and what affects the picture media. The referenda on nuclear power and EU membership have been analysed in the same way.
