En kris men två olika bilder : En bildanalys av tre nyhetskanalers visuella representation av krisen i Iran på Instagram / One Crisis But Two Different Pictures : A Visual Analysis of Three News Channels’ Visual Representation of The Crisis in Iran On InstagramKaeeny, Mary January 2023 (has links)
The aim of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the visual representation of the crisis in Iran on Instagram by Swedish and the Persian news accounts. The study analyzes the images through semiotic images analysis and includes 20 images, 10 of which are from two Swedish news accounts and the other 10 are from a Persian news account. The study draws on postcolonial theory, specifically the concept orientalism. The findings of the study reveal notable disparities in the reporting of the crisis between the Swedish and Persian news accounts. Notably, the Swedish visual reporting predominantly portrays women as the sole victims of the crisis, while the Persian news media has highlighted both male and female victims of the crisis. Consequently, the crisis in Iran is portrayed in the Swedish news media as a "women's revolution," implying that only women lack their human rights. Additionally, the results have shown that the Swedish news media has visually reported the crisis in a way that reinforces the stereotyping of "the other", which has shown to be consistent with previous research.
