Abstract:
|
The research examines the relationship between the portrayals of the Global Justice Movement (GJM) in the mainstream print media. The study focuses on the anti-globalization's protest events for the duration of four years beginning with the protest during the World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting in 1999 in Seattle and covers all major protests through the end of 2002. The GJM protest against what they perceive as a small group of dominant rich countries, multinational corporations and multilateral institutions which have coalesced into a global economic empire over the last two decades. This study will examine how the movement is represented in the press, focusing on two questions. (1) Are there any patterns of coverage used by the press to portray the anti-globalization movement? (2) Do the answers to either of these questions change over time? This study assumes that the bias of the media is part of the very same system as contributing to the global empire of multinational corporations (McChesney, 2000; McChesney & Scott, 2004). The analysis of the media coverage of five different events between 1999 and 2002 will use "framing" theory to understand how the bias is instituted and if this pattern is consistent over the years. The connotations and metaphors (cf. Entman 1993 words and images) used to portray an event in the media can add meaning to and alter perceptions of the protest events. This study finds the framing strategies of the journalists regarding GJM protests are realized through the use of two forms of memory-based framing strategies: explicit and implicit. Explicit memory-based framing strategies reference the coverage of previous events and the implicit strategies exploiting connotations and metaphors of violence/war forms patterns is not only used consistently over the years but is also reinforced. |

| Goffman’s development of the “framing theory” spurred a wealth of research in various fields. He defined framing as a “schemata of interpretations” (Goffman 1974) whereby schemata are used to help interpret events in the world. Schemas are a system of cognitive structures (frames) through which the world is viewed and understood. Schemas are fluid and adaptable and so can be affected by the frames of the media in interpreting current events (Entman 1993). The frames are stored cumulatively in |
