Religion in Public Discourse: The Role of the Media

This was a two-year-long effort (1991 to 1993) that continued Stewart Hoover’s work on religion journalism. Funded by the Lilly Endowment, the project enabled survey as well as qualitative research, and included studies of the profession of religion journalism. This project resulted in Hoover’s book, Religion in the News: Faith and Journalism in American Public Discourse (Sage, 1999).
