Document Summary
Political culture, political socialization, and the news media. Political culture refers to the thoughts, attitudes, assumptions, and values of individuals and groups. It is a mindset that makes clear what is acceptable and unacceptable in terms of how we deal with society s problems. We are not born with these mindsets we learn them. It is the process through which people acquire these thoughts, values, and assumptions fo their political culture. Our thoughts and feelings are told to others through communications through symbols. A symbol is anything that communicates the thoughts and feelings that are in our minds. Sometimes they refer to things that we actually see. Sometimes they express emotions (e. g. poverty is wrong and must end you see it, but an emotional response is also triggered). Other times, thoughts and feelings can blend together. Symbols include photographs, painted pictures, spoken words, and written words.
