Dr. Cynthia Peacock is a professor of communication studies at the University of Alabama. Peacock's work focuses primarily on political communication and news media, with most of her work coming in those fields. In July 2019, Peacock and fellow researcher Matthew Barnidge published an article regarding hyperpartisan news coverage online and the effect it has had on selective exposure. In February 2020, Peacock and other researchers traveled to Iowa in order to see firsthand the process of the 2020 Iowa caucuses, which coincided with several controversies relating to those very same caucuses.
