Current Ph.D. students
Andrew Armstrong
political science
My research explores the interaction of epistemology, politics, and the media. With a nod to a former defense secretary, I am interested in how news coverage influences what we know about what we know. My research is driven by large-n content analyses of TV and digital platforms, assessing how certitude is expressed and transmitted through the public sphere. More information about my research and teaching can be found on my website.
