Delighted to see this out! Are individuals equally willing to trade off different public goods for partisanship? Would they prefer in-group loyalty to election integrity and to national security in a real context of threat? Take a look!

What is interesting here is how little influence media coverage of the econ has when it does deviate from actual econ. This is likely a floor rather than a ceiling but nevertheless likely smaller than most would have expected. Unemployment effects, for example, are not mediated by news tone at all.

Pretty much exactly 80 years after the liberation of Auschwitz, the richest man in the world uses the Nazi salute at the inauguration of his close ally as US president. What should rationally not be surprising is still so deeply shocking and simply difficult to comprehend.
