Abstract:
|
This study is the first of its kind to look at the reporting of gender-specific cancer reporting in both mainstream and black newspapers. The sample is drawn from 23 weekly black newspapers and 12 daily mainstream newspapers for a 17-month period between April 1, 2004, and August 28, 2005. A total of 157 staff-generated cancer stories were analyzed. Reporters appear more likely to report on gender-specific cancers such as breast cancer and prostate cancer more so than lung cancer—which is the leading cause of U.S. deaths. Female staff appeared to write slightly more stories than male staff for mainstream newspapers and that male staff more often wrote stories for black newspapers. |
