# FakeNews 1: Die Meinungsmacher

ECONtribute Wirtschaftspodcast, 13.10.2022 | Host: Carolin Jackermeier

“Wo liegt die Grenze zwischen populistischer Meinung, Verschwörungstheorie und FakeNews? Können Zuschauende Fakten und Meinungen immer klar trennen? Und wie wird sich der meinungsgetriebene Medienkonsum zukünftig entwickeln? Christopher Roth, Professor bei ECONtribute an der Universität zu Köln, hat in verschieden Studien den Medienkonsum von polarisierenden US-Meinungsshows und dessen Auswirkungen analysiert. Wir sprechen darüber, warum populistische Meinungsbeiträge das Entstehen von Fake News begünstigen kann, woran es liegt, dass immer mehr Menschen klassischen Nachrichten misstrauen und ob sich dies in naher Zukunft ändern lässt. In dieser Folge geht es um Meinungen, Polarisierung und (falsche) Fakten.”

Inflation Narratives

CEPR VOXEU Column, 23.12.2021 | Johannes Wohlfart, Ingar Haaland, Christopher Roth, & Peter Andre

“Inflation has recently surged in both the US and the EU. This column uses responses from surveys of a representative sample of the US population as well as academic economists and US firm managers to show that households and managers are more likely than experts to think that the current surge in inflation will be persistent. Since the narratives individuals use to explain movements in inflation appear central to whether inflation expectations remain anchored, communication strategies by policymakers could put emphasis on specific narratives that highlight that inflationary pressures are unlikely to persist.”
