Abstract
This study examines the effect of labeling staged video on television news story credibility. The study found no significant difference between credibility scores for a labeled story and the same story without labels. However, the credibility score for a labeled story in a newscast containing a second labeled story was significantly lower than the score for the unlabeled version of the same story. Labeled stories did not significantly affect the credibility of other unlabeled stories in the same newscast.Keywords
