Abstract:
|
This paper examined how civic journalism impacts newspaper coverage by analyzing the media coverage of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in five newspapers published in some of the affected areas. Specifically, this study focused on newspaper story sources – official v. non-official. The findings suggested larger newspapers used more official sources. Additionally, official sources were more common in the official stories while non-official sources were more common when the story focused on citizen-oriented topics. |
