Michael W. Wagner is an assistant professor in the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s School of Journalism and Mass Communication. His research, teaching, and service are animated by the question, “how well does democracy work?” Wagner approaches this question from a variety of perspectives, incorporating elements of the study of political communication, political parties, journalism, public opinion, political psychology, political behavior, religion and politics, the presidency, and biology into his work. Mike Gruszczynski is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, TN. His research primarily focuses on how emotions influence political beliefs and behavior. His interests more broadly are in political communication, psychology, and public policy.
