Where do citizens believe others turn to for news? This dissertation introduces the idea of perceived partisan selective exposure: the perception that others curate media diets featuring primarily like-minded political content. Two studies examine citizens' estimates of others' news habits and provide insight into why individuals might assume others are drawn to ideologically consonant information. In Study 1, a national survey of voters (N= 657) before the 2016 presidential election gauged (a) how opposing partisans judged the political slant of various news sources and (b) how much election news partisans believe their opponents received from those sources. Results demonstrate that voters sense that their political opponents gravitated toward like-minded sources for election news. Respondents reported that the news the "other side" consumed failed to open them up to new ideas, made them more extreme, and reinforced their prior beliefs. In Study 2, a national survey of voters (N=815) reveals that while both Democrats and Republicans describe their own news diets as balanced between attitude-confirming and attitude-challenging news, they also believe that others, especially their political rivals, consume primarily like-minded content.

520 $a These findings are then integrated into a broader model of perceived news media effects. People believe media have powerful effects on others. The present studies reveal that citizens believe their political opponents are voluntarily exposing themselves to the very media that is most likely to cause undesirable effects.
