The US has a weakness: its groveling, highly internationalized oligarchy
Why is it a weakness? Because it’s a tiny number of people, who rely, for their wealth, on accessing foreign markets—thus giving foreign countries sizable power on them
It’s now time to use that power 6/x

Did you mean: "It's important to note that almost every sentence that starts with "It is important to note" will be better if you delete that phrase and just say the subsequent thing." ?

Over 10 years, total circulation in India has increased by 10% because of political determinants. Is this due to an increase in supply or in demand of newspapers ? After 10 years, politically motivated supply account for half of that effect. 8/12

This is driven by newspapers in the language of the state they are published in, ie, those more likely to cover state politics. 7/12

Markets who will become more politically important start diverging when the delimitation is announced. Circulation and number of titles increase in market who will become more politically important. 6/12

The delimitation only changes the political weight, not the economic determinants of the newsmarket (literacy, income...). We use an event study comparing the evolution of markets around the time of the delim. 5/12

We take advantage of the redistricting (aka delimitation) of state constituencies: certain districts become more politically important (have more representatives) other, less, while some are left unchanged. 4/12

We track the newspaper market of each of the +/-600 Indian districts: number of titles, circulation, frequency of publication, language. 3/12

We collected data on circulation for each newspaper in India, in each city, each year during 2002-2017. We believe it is the first such granular database for news media in a developping country. 2/12
