To accurately match the top terms with the corresponding ways the media and public opinion shape public policy and party philosophy, you could organize them as follows:

  1. Social media - Public opinion polls

    • Social media platforms often gauge and reflect public sentiment, which can then influence policy decisions as represented in public opinion polls.
  2. Mass communication - Interest groups

    • Mass communication channels can amplify the voices of interest groups, shaping public policy discussions and party philosophies.
  3. Social networks - Third party

    • Social networks can play a role in supporting or promoting third-party movements, influencing wider public opinion and, subsequently, party platforms.

This matching can provide insights into how different forms of media and public perspectives converge to affect policymaking and party ideology.
