|More Americans get their news from audiovisual channels than ever before, and |In-Your-Face Politics| shows why the practice of democracy is suffering as a result. Mutz impressively reveals how visual news formats tend to polarize partisans and diminish trust in government. So long as engaging citizen attention remains a central challenge of democratic governance, her book offers a warning and a way forward that anyone concerned about the future of news would do well to heed.|--Scott L. Althaus, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign |In this compelling, entertaining, and evidence-driven work, one of the world's foremost specialists on political communication explores the fact that people mistakenly but understandably apply traditional, in-person norms of social interaction to televised political content. By elucidating the consequences of this mismatch, Mutz fundamentally alters our basic understanding of the political arena.|--John R. Hibbing, coauthor of |Predisposed: Liberals, Conservatives, and the Biology of Political Differences| ||In-Your-Face Politics| is political science at its best. Mutz combines wit and humor, historical perspective, and rigorous science to show that incivility on televised political programs increases people's interest in and knowledge about politics, although at the cost of weakening their trust in government. 'Ultimately, ' Mutz concludes, 'we are left with the dilemma of how to create political programming that is both interesting and informative to watch, yet not likely to damage public attitudes in a significant way.' This book should be required reading for legislators, members of the media, and citizens who value informed public engagement.|--James H. Kuklinski, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign |This book is a model of exemplary social science: it investigates a politically salient issue, exploits an arsenal of methodological issues, and is written in a lucid and lively style. An entertaining and instructive study of politics and media, and the effects of mass communications and close-up camera perspectives, it will interest political scientists and all those concerned with public affairs.|--Paul Sniderman, Stanford University |With the rise of increasingly aggressive presentations in media outlets--talk radio, TV, and the web--|In-Your-Face Politics| is a timely work. Employing a rich array of data using multiple methods, this book is first rate, well done, and likely to be influential.|--George E. Marcus, Williams College
