Republicans Seek Conservative Christian (Will Settle for Christian Conservative)
Monday January 9th, 2012
 
by Nicole Neroulias

Secular and religious media alike exhaustively report on the faith of presidential hopefuls, especially when it comes to Republicans, whose candidates have to fight for the souls as well as the hearts and minds of their primary voters. Thus despite the economy and other pressing national concerns, the GOP's base of white, churchgoing social conservatives--abetted by the news media's tendency to let that constituency frame the story--makes each contender's stance on abortion and gay rights the litmus test for "values." ... read more

Republicans Seek Conservative Christian (Will Settle for Christian Conservative)

Posted By: Nicole Neroulias

The notion of "values" has essentially become shorthand for opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage among conservative Christian voters in the Republican primaries. But by using these political priorities to frame their coverage of the issues at stake for GOP voters, journalists are essentially allowing their sources to shape the story. Do evangelicals--particularly the younger generation--have concerns about the economy or the environment? Does traditional Catholic teaching on war and poverty put Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum at odds with conservative dogma? Reads Nicole Neroulias' blog here.

Theological and demographic shifts among evangelicals are changing the political priorities of the group that currently exerts the greatest influence on the rhetoric of the Republican party and largely shapes the way religion figures into the campaigns leading up to general presidential elections. Journalists have only scratched the surface of this phenomenon; many stories are waiting to be told.

The Israel-Palestine Project 2011

BERJAYA

USC Annenberg journalism students who traveled to Israel-Palestine in March 2011 have created the Israel-Palestine Project 2011 to showcase their reporting. One of the key elements of the project is an innovative partnership with "On Being," American Public Media's talk show on meaning, religion, ethics and ideas. Please check out our work and let us know what you think.
