Politics in today's society unfolding more and more in the media, but the media content is limited. Therefore, the media must constantly make choices, choices which are specific to each object. The purpose of this study is to examine how Olof Palme is portrayed as a politician and private individual in the documentary film Palme - älskad och hatad, and also how Carl Bildt is portrayed as a politician and private individual in the documentary film Bildt - excellensen. To study the documentary films I use a qualitative textual analysis with a focus on a narrative analysis. In the narrative analysis, I have been inspired by the categoricalcontent- based approach to study the documentary films. In my analysis, with the help of theories of mediatization of politics, documentaries and stories, I interpret and analyze the films to make them more understandable. The conclusions of the study is that Palme in his role as a politician is portrayed as a humane person who cares about the individual. Palme as a private person is portrayed with a focus on a healthy appearance and with little time for his children. Bildt in his role as a politican is portrayed with an interest in the Swedish defense and being disrespectful in his way to get around. As a private person, Bildt is portrayed with an interest in war in general and being a bully who always must get right. In his role as father, Bildt is portrayed to be a bad father, and who put all his jobs and assignments in front of his children. Finally, the portrayal of Palme is on a level that arouses strong feelings for Palme as person, while the portrayal of Bildt become more callous and very factual with a large focus on politics instead of Bildt's personal image.

Frågorna har byggts upp utifrån Strömbäcks och Entmans teori och definition av gestaltningens fyra grundläggande egenskaper. Vidare har resonemanget om den journalistiska dramaturgins grundläggande element och språkliga redskap inom sensationsjournalistik, använts som stöd i utformandet av analysfrågorna.   Analysmaterialet är hämtat från Retriever, begränsat på redaktionellt digitalt publicerade artiklar mellan datumen 14 - 18 april. Urvalet resulterade i 23 aktiva analysenheter för studien varav är 11 från Aftonbladet och 12 från Expressen.   Studiens resultat är att Mehmet Kaplan gestaltades från Aftonbladet och Expressens håll som otillgänglig, antisemitisk och islamistisk. Samtidigt vidhöll hans politiska kollegor utåt att Kaplan var humanist, demokrat och antirasist. Rapporteringen under de fyra aktuella dagarna var i olika skeenden.

This study explores identity formation among young adults as influenced by mediated politics and popular culture. Based on the nature of the research subject the study adopts constructionism both ontologically as well as epistemologically, hence a qualitative research design was drawn upon, resulting in five interviews of two as empirical data collection. Participants were recruited through existing networks. The material was then processed using thematic analysis together with a broad theoretical framework in relation to identity, hybridity and representations, amongst further perspectives. Findings reveal a reflexive relationship between the participants' identity and mediated politics and popular culture. The reflexive relationship was illustrated through the main following phenomenon; (1) a constant negotiation between Swedishness and the individual's roots of origin, however, to different degrees; (2) ambiguous attitudes towards representations in media where some participants felt a need as well as no need to be represented in media – potentially complicated due to exaggerated stereotypes and intersectionality; (3) a positioning to political messages and opinions in relation to self identity.
