Abstract:

Extensive media-movement literature addressed the intersection of news framing, social change and social control. However, the role of media other than mainstream in social activism has been largely ignored. This study aims to explore how the cultural values of the Chinese community and the mainstream society were reflected and transmitted in the Chinese and English-languages media in a social change issue. This study employs the Centering Resonance Analysis (CRA), a computer-assisted qualitative network-based text analysis approach, to process a comprehensive collection of news coverage from both the English and Chinese-language newspapers. The comparison of the content was carried out at both macro and micro level, i.e. the general themes and specific words. Cultural values that contributed to the differences and similarities of the news coverage were discussed.
