Mapping the discourse of the 1996 US presidential general election

Article Abstract:

Campaign construction and debates of the 1996 US presidential election prevented discussions on many relevant issues. Although misleading statements in advertisements reached a record high of more than 50%, none of the television network monitoring programs revealed the inaccuracies. Debates followed strict rules that limited or prohibited certain questions. The public passively encouraged these strategies by remaining politically apathetic.
