An Attack on Science? Media Use, Trust in
Scientists, and Perceptions of Global Warming
    Jay Hmielowski, Lauren Feldman, Teresa Myers,
      Anthony Leiserowitz, and Edward Maibach
General Research Questions




How does attention to various media outlets relate to (a) trust in
scientists and (b) beliefs about whether global warming is occurring?
Does trust in scientists serve as a mediating variable between media
use and beliefs about global warming?
Conservative Media
          -Are more likely to cover
          climate contrarians and
          conservative think tanks

          -Use of conservative
          media shown to decrease
          belief that global warming
          is happening
Non-Conservative Media
-Less likely to give voice
to climate skeptics and
tends to reflect the
scientific consensus

-Use of non-conservative
media shown to increase
belief that global warming
is happening
Trust in Scientists
       -Public possess limited
       knowledge about global warming

       -Rely on heuristics when
       reporting attitudes, opinions, etc.

       -Trust in scientists has been
       shown to be a
       heuristic, especially for scientific
       issues (e.g., global warming)

       -Media have been shown to
       influence public trust in scientists
