A Meta-Analytical Review on Media-Generated Stereotype Threat and Stereotype Lift (2017, background): “As Lippmann (1922) introduced the concept of the stereotype to the social sciences, communication scholars have examined the prevalence of stereotypes in the media, as well as the effects of stereotypical portrayals on media audiences (cf. Berelson & Salter, 1946; Dale, 1938; Seiter, 1986).”
What is a Stereotype? What is Stereotyping? (2015, background): “In 1922, in a monograph called Public Opinion, Walter Lippman, a Pultizer-winning journalist and a former student of Harvard psychologist William James, referred to stereotypes as “the pictures inside the heads of human beings” (Lippman 1922).”

Publics and Lay Informatics: A Review of the Situational Theory of Problem Solving (2014, result): “The sub-division of the three types of communicative behaviors into proactive and reactive dimensions is similar to Lippman’s (1925) and Blumer’s (1948) assertion that publics are composed of “both active and relatively passive elements” (Price, 1992, p. 31).”
Social media news communities: gatekeeping, coverage, and statement bias (2013, background): “It has been shown to have the capability to foster intolerance as well as ideological segregation, and even antagonisms in major political and social issues [8].”
Internet Search Data and Issue Salience: The Properties of Google Trends as a Measure of Issue Salience (2014, background): “Price argues that survey research shows that “the bulk of the general population is both uninterested and uninformed on most matters that could be construed as public affairs” (Price, 1992).”
