Fathers’ time investments in children: do sons get more? (2011, background): “In larger families, the merit of the additional television time allotted to boys and girls with brothers is difficult to evaluate, as the effect of TV on children’s development is a complex topic; for example, effects appear to be heterogeneous across different groups ( Gentzkow and Shapiro 2008 ; V”
The Al Gore effect: An Inconvenient Truth and voluntary carbon offsets (2011, background): “Recent research has examined the relationship between media bias and voting (DellaVigna and Kaplan, 2007), violent films and violent behavior (Dahl and DellaVigna, in press), television and children’s academic performance (Gentzkow and Shapiro, 2008), public exposure of corrupt officials and electio”
Infant and Early Childhood Exposure to Adult-Directed and Child-Directed Television Programming: Relations with Cognitive Skills at Age Four (2010, methodology): “However, other researchers found no association between early television exposure on later developmental outcomes (Gentzkow & Shapiro, 2008; Mistry, Minkovitz, Strobino, & Borzekowski, 2007; Obel et al., 2004; Stevens & Mulsow, 2006).”
The Welfare Effects of Bundling in Multichannel Television Markets (2012, background): “These values are new evidence about marginal costs of bundles of cable channels to add to those found in industry surveys (Halfon (2003, footnote 78), FCC (2003)). While the estimated bundle marginal costs are robust, the projection of estimated marginal costs onto the individual channels that form ”

When Should You Adjust Standard Errors for Clustering? (2017, unknown): “We argue that the new design component is important because between-cluster variation in treatment assignments often motivates the use of clustered standard errors in empirical studies [see, e.g., Gentzkow and Shapiro, 2008, Cohen and Dupas, 2010].”
