Vera Sosnovik, Oana Goga

摘要:

在过去的几年里,在线政治广告大幅增长。为了监控在线赞助的政治话语,Facebook、谷歌和Twitter等公司创建了公共广告库,收集在其平台上运行的政治广告。目前,政策制定者和平台都在讨论进一步限制政治广告,以阻止滥用。本文探讨了我们是否可以可靠地区分政治广告和非政治广告。我们采取实证的方法来分析什么样的广告被普通人认为是政治性的,什么样的广告会导致分歧。我们的研究结果显示,广告平台、普通人和广告商对政治的看法存在重大分歧,这表明这种分歧主要来自于对哪些广告涉及社会问题的不同意见。总的来说,我们的研究结果意味着,重要的是要考虑社会问题的广告作为政治,但他们也复杂的政治广告法规。

英文摘要:

Online political advertising has grown significantly over the last few years. To monitor online sponsored political discourse, companies such as Facebook, Google, and Twitter have created public Ad Libraries collecting the political ads that run on their platforms. Currently, both policymakers and platforms are debating further restrictions on political advertising to deter misuses. This paper investigates whether we can reliably distinguish political ads from non-political ads. We take an empirical approach to analyze what kind of ads are deemed political by ordinary people and what kind of ads lead to disagreement. Our results show a significant disagreement between what ad platforms, ordinary people, and advertisers consider political and suggest that this disagreement mainly comes from diverging opinions on which ads address social issues. Overall our results imply that it is important to consider social issue ads as political, but they also complicate political advertising regulations.
