“…It can be interpreted that diverse listeners have more political information to share, easing them to bring casual conversations about politics both online and offline more often (Chan-Olmsted and Wang, 2022). Unlike informational or critical listening, habitual listening does not require a specific purpose (Laor, 2022). Habitual behavior can be performed in a stable, frequent, and automatic manners so that habitual listeners’ usage time would be much longer than that of listeners with informational purposes (Kruglanski and Szumowska, 2020).…”

The purpose of this study is to examine Korean listeners’ motivations for listening to political news podcasts drawing on uses and gratifications. This study revealed five motivations: social support, convenience, ease of obtaining political information, diversion/habitual use, and alternative use/de-authoritative flow. The study also confirmed that the extent to which gratifications sought for political news podcasts differs depending on listeners’ political orientations. Liberals have stronger motivations for convenience in use, ease of obtaining political information, and diversion/habitual use compared to conservatives. Furthermore, this research found that the motivations for social support, alternative use, and diversion/habitual use tend to impact political discussions with others, both online and offline, and this process could encourage their intention of political participation as well.

PurposeThis study examined the association between media consumers' attitudes toward COVID-19-related content on mainstream, on-demand and social media and trust in the government's ability to handle the pandemic crisis.Design/methodology/approachThe study is based on an online survey of a representative sample of 1,005 Israelis aged 18 and over and focused on consumers' perceptions of media contents as a source of information, social solidarity, criticism and anxiety.FindingsFindings indicate that mainstream media were the primary source of pandemic information. A positive association was found between perceptions of mainstream media as a source of criticism and trust in government's actions. This association was negative regarding social and on-demand media. The more mainstream media contents were perceived as anxiety evoking, the lower participants' trust in government's actions. A positive association was found between perceptions that social media encouraged social solidarity and trust in governmental action.Practical implicationsPolicymakers should take into consideration that various media operate synergistically to continually construct reality.Originality/valueThis study focuses on consumers' perceptions of COVID-related media contents, which are especially important in the current era of media outlet proliferation, distribution and impact on the government. The unique contribution is in the integrated application of media malaise theory, virtuous circle theory and echo chamber theory to explain the correlation between media consumption and public trust during a global crisis in the era of diverse media outlets.Peer reviewThe peer review history for this article is available at: https://publons.com/publon/10.1108/OIR-06-2021-0299.

“…Science-based radio programming that centers on health education can increase audience knowledge levels and positively modify health behaviors (Greeves & Ledbetter, 2022).

Radio is a trusted environment with vested local connections to consumers across demographics and all types of media users (Laor, 2022).…”
