| Abstract | The present study examines the media usage pattern within Macau and mainland Chinese college students and how media shapes their attitudes toward the Umbrella Movement. Research findings are as follows. First, although Macau students in general show more support on the Umbrella Movement than mainland China students, the magnitude is moderate (4.7 in 10-point scale). Second, the two types of students have divergent pattern in media consumption but the differences are not clear-cut. While mainland China students read less Hong Kong and Macau newspaper and more rely on WeChat in receiving news, they have the same preference as Macau students in some pro-democracy media like Apply Daily and foreign media. Third, exposure to the same type of media exerts heterogeneous effects on students. Mainland China students only increase their support toward the Umbrella Movement under intentional exposure to neutral media. In contrast, changes in political attitude in relative political moderate Macau students can be caused by either intentional exposure or incidental exposure on pro-democracy media. We finally discuss the implications on the above findings in studies of Macau Politics and political communication. |
