Abstract

When corporations, news media and advocacy organizations embrace networked information technology, intentionally or unintentionally, they influence democratic processes. To capture and understand the influence of publicly available electronic content, the US Election 2004 Web Monitor tracked the online coverage of US presidential candidates, and investigated how this coverage reflected their position on environmental issues.
