Dear Steve:
I’m writing to see if you’d be interested in having your email list /
listserv folks participate in an online survey about political
information and communication.
This is a convenience survey -- the people who are interested in it will
take it and the people who aren’t won’t take it – so it is not a
representative sampling and we will not report the results as
statistically-significant findings. Our main purpose is to gather up
qualitative details about how politically-engaged citizens get news and
information, how they assess the information they find, and how they act
on the information.
If the stories we get are great and revealing we will be including them
in some upcoming reports we’re doing on politics and the internet and
I’ll try to find ways to cite them in the book I’m doing with
sociologist Barry Wellman about the new networked era.
The survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete and it can be
found here: *http://www.psra.com/polcom.html*
If for some reason that url doesn’t work, respondents can also try here:

People on your list should use the PIN: 1001
If you or people on your list have any questions about this survey
please feel free to contact me: <email obscured>

As always, I am very grateful for your interest in our work and I’m
impressed with what you do.
Thanks,
