论文摘要
这项研究通过应用一种在网络和变压器语言模型上使用因果效应估计的新方法来量化媒体媒体之间的影响。我们通过分析了来自2018年5月至2019年5月最著名的欧洲和俄罗斯传统媒体发表的大量报价数据，从2018年5月至2019年10月之间出现了与其他新闻网络的网络结构相同，该网络结构与promintections neckent nectionn ecnections nections ecnections一起，我们证明了国家控制媒体对其他媒体对其他媒体的掩盖影响。总体而言，这种方法证明了在特定主题中识别和量化中间议程设置中影响渠道的能力。
This study quantifies influence between media outlets by applying a novel methodology that uses causal effect estimation on networks and transformer language models. We demonstrate the obscured influence of state-controlled outlets over other outlets, regardless of orientation, by analyzing a large dataset of quotations from over 100 thousand articles published by the most prominent European and Russian traditional media outlets, appearing between May 2018 and October 2019. The analysis maps out the network structure of influence with news wire services serving as prominent bridges that connect outlets in different geo-political spheres. Overall, this approach demonstrates capabilities to identify and quantify the channels of influence in intermedia agenda setting over specific topics.
