Om jag säger Rinkeby, vad tänker du då?Tihic, Esed January 2013 (has links)
The objective of this research was to study how two newspapers in Sweden, Aftonbladet and Expressen are creating an image of the Stockholm suburb Rinkeby. The method used to do the study was qualitative content analysis. Ten articles were chosen, five off either newspaper and were found on the internet homepages of the newspapers on 15 November of 2013 and 27 January of 2014. Several theories were used in the study. Agenda setting theory, a media theory that explains the power of media, Figuration theory developed by Norbert Elias that deals with power struggles between different groups in society. Labeling theory explains how society, by labeling someone a “criminal” may accept it as an own identity and become one. Mats Franzén theory of power and how it can be understood thru discourse, context and resources. While studying the subject I realized that for long time the suburbs of Sweden have been portrayed in a negative context, especially “famous” suburbs like Rinkeby. The suburbs’ are constructed by the media as very dangerous places, with young people (often males) running wild and engaging in destructive behavior.

"Är ditt pass köpt i Botkyrka?" : En kvalitativ fallstudie av Public Service digitala nyhetsrapportering om "Jakten på papperslösa" / "Was your passport bought in Botkyrka?" : A qualitative case study on the digital news reporting of "The hunt for the unregistered immigrants" as represented by Swedish Public Service mediaWalder, Lisa, Lundholm, Caroline January 2014 (has links)
The study examines medias impact on every day racism through Agenda Setting and Framing. Prior studies on the subject are either conducted from an American perspective, or are several years of age. In this study we highlight how todays media depicts our society and how it affects the concept of the world on an individual level. The study is a content analysis of the case study on the news stories “The hunt for the unregistered immigrants”, which have been analyzed through critical discourse analysis. It builds upon studies conducted by Löwander (1997) and Brune (2004) regarding ethnic groups in the Swedish society. The result of this study suggests that Swedish public service media, SR and SVT convey an image in which ethnic minority groups are of lower value than “the white norm” in Swedish society.

HIV/Aidsberichtgeving in vier lokale kranten in Zuid-Afrika : de Carletonville Herald, Potchefstroom Herald en NoordWes Gazette, en de Klerksdorp Record / M.C. TienstraTienstra, Magdalena Christine January 2007 (has links)
This research paper investigates the functions of community newspapers in the battle against HIV/Aids.
The research is conducted through studying literature, analysing four selected community newspapers
and interviewing the editors of the newspapers.
According to the literature, a community newspaper stands closer to the reader than any other
newspaper, which means it could have a larger impact than for example a national paper. A community
paper can provide information or start a debate in the community.
The media can focus the attention of the reader on HIV/Aids through agenda setting. By giving the
subject prominence in a publication, for instance, the media show how important they consider the
subject.
The functions of the press can be divided in different categories: the informative function, the press as a
booster of the public debate, the service function, the educative function and the entertainment function.
This study finds that not all the researched newspapers consider it their responsibility to cover HIV/Aids.
The importance that the editors give to the subject and the number of articles that reaches the
publication also does not match. The functions the newspapers mainly fulfil, are the information and
education function. The reasons for a moderate coverage of HIV/Aids include a lack of statistics, a lack of
information from organisations, staff shortages and fear that the reader will receive the opinion that the
newspaper writes about the same things over and over again. / Mini-dissertation (M.A. (Communication Studies))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2007.

Die dekking van MIV/vigs in die Sunday Times, Rapport en Sunday Sun : 'n etiese beoordeling / T. SwanepoelSwanepoel, Thalyta January 2005 (has links)
The media has an important role to play in providing information to form the
perceptions of media users on HIV/Aids. Furthermore, the media has an agenda
setting function through which it determines what news consumers think about, and
how they think about these topics they are presented with.
Extensive media coverage has been given to the subject of HIV/Aids since
the start of the pandemic. The nature of the coverage has, however, been widely
criticised, mainly by interest groups actively involved in the fight against the disease.
Few formal guidelines exist to guide journalists in this field. Moreover, the
existing guidelines that originated mainly from the gaps interest groups identified in
the coverage on HIV/Aids, are fairly fragmented. Many newspapers follow the
general guidelines set by the media industry for ethical news reporting. These
guidelines, such as the ethical code of the Press Ombudsman, are a result of self regulation,
which is intrinsic to the social responsibility model that is seen as ideal for
South Africa. There are several existing codes offering guidance regarding
professional standards and general conduct. Only one - that of the now inactive
South African Union of Journalists - includes criteria on HIV/Aids reporting. Through
formulating guidelines, interest groups have an agenda setting function and a
subsequent potential influence on the media and the public agenda.
This paper endeavours to analyse and systematically summarise criteria set
by the interest groups for ethically acceptable and accountable HIV/Aids reporting
against the background of the agenda setting theory and the social responsibility
model. In addition, HIV/Aids reporting in three Sunday papers (the Sunday Times,
Sunday Sun and Rapport) is verified against these interest group criteria to ascertain
how it measures up, and to determine whether a separate interest group code of
ethics is desirable.
It was found that the Sunday Times views HIV/Aids as a news priority, while
the topic does not feature very high on the agenda of the other two papers. The
analysis of news items created the impression that journalists have a basic
knowledge of HIV/Aids. However, there is little evidence of deeper insight into the
potential impact the media could have on the public's perception of the epidemic.
Existing ethics codes compare well to interest group guidelines where general
professional standards and ethical aspects are concerned. The interest group
guidelines, however, focus on specific problems associated with the epidemic, such
as stigma and a tendency to focus on the negative. It is within this applied context
that such criteria could be useful. / Thesis (M.A. (Communication Studies))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2005.

Canadian political blogs: online opinion leaders or opinionated followers?Brown, Curtis 26 March 2010 (has links)
Self-published web diaries called blogs are one manifestation of the Internet’s potential to create new discursive and dialogic spaces for citizens. Blogs are described by their authors and others in the news media (as well as some academic commentators) as a medium that potentially fosters political dialogue in the spirit of Habermas’ conceptual “public sphere.” Blogs also serve as potential competitors to mass media outlets in political debates in two distinct ways: first, by acting as agenda-setters and framers of issues, events and figures and second, by challenging journalistic norms such as the principles of fairness, neutrality and non-partisanship. In spite of these claims, however, very little empirical evidence exists to date on whether political blogs perform the roles of agenda-setters, gatekeepers or framers, or whether they are actually seen as a challenge or potential replacement to mass media outlets by themselves, by journalists or by those who could utilize blogs to transmit messages to the public. This thesis examines these questions as they pertain to Canadian politics, focusing on the interaction between journalists, partisan bloggers and political communications practitioners to assess whether blogs written by explicitly partisan authors actually: 1) create unique discursive spaces for discussion of Canadian political issues, 2) set agendas for political discussion and set issues and 3) serve as an occupational threat/potential replacement to media outlets for disseminating political information. Using surveys and content analysis, this thesis contends that partisan blogs largely mimic political discussion already occurring in media-produced content and are perceived as a potential, though not completely credible, replacement for shaping political agendas and disseminating information.

Approaching Revolution in the Middle East and the Current Media Landscape : Social Media- and News Agency Material in reporting of the Arab Spring and War in SyriaHessel, Hampus January 2014 (has links)
The Arab spring has been called a social media revolution and social media have been given large importance and significant space in both academic discussions and analysis in the media. The main focus of this study was to examine whether social media have impacted the news reporting of the conflicts. A sample of articles from four different newspapers was examined, taken randomly from all relevant articles published on the newspapers websites between December 2010 and December 2013. A part of that sample was checked for news agency cable reliance and the entire sample were checked for material from social media. Three newspapers were found to rely heavily on news agency material. The New York Times was the exception, having only 4 percent of articles being based on news agency material. Social media material and quotes were found and were used in the report-ing in different ways, but only in 4 percent of articles. It was mainly used as a way to get protester commentary. Two of the included newspapers were China Daily and the New York Times. The differences between the respective reporting in these newspapers were also examined in yet an-other subsample consisting of 100 articles from each newspaper. Several differences be-tween the reporting were found, with China Daily for example presenting a framing more in favour of the government of Syria than the New York Times.
