Editing Agenda-setting theory (section)

=== Review of studies on agenda-setting theory ===
Various critiques have been made of agenda-setting theory:
*Studies tend to aggregate media content categories and public responses into very broad categories, resulting in inflated correlation coefficients.<ref name="Rogers 1988 555–594"/>
*The theory seemed to imply that the audience takes a passive position. However, the public is not as passive as the theory assumed. Theorist John Fiske has challenged the view of a passive audience.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Fiske |first1=John |title=Television: Polysemy and popularity |journal=Critical Studies in Mass Communication |date=December 1986 |volume=3 |issue=4 |pages=391–408 |doi=10.1080/15295038609366672 }}</ref>
