Brigitte L. Nacos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brigitte L. Nacos is a part time Lecturer in political science at Columbia University. She has written on the news media, the politics of Germany, and terrorism.
She is a joint author of a paper which was delivered at the Summer 2006 meeting of the American Political Science Association; the paper addresses the correlation between increases in terrorism alert levels and the popularity of U.S. President George W. Bush. Referring to her study of terrorism alerts, media coverage, and Bush's popularity, journalist Matthew Stannard wrote in the San Francisco Chronicle that "The media will repeat the president's remarks. Public fear of terrorism will increase. And the president's poll numbers will rise." [1]
