This study investigated the portrayal of the Arab Spring by conducting a qualitative framing analysis of editorials and columns in two elite U.S. newspapers: The New York Times and The Washington Post. Most opinion writers on the Arab Spring in the The New York Times and The Washington Post were either journalists from the news organizations themselves or ex-officials and scholars at various U.S. institutions. Thus, these papers reflected the viewpoints of political elites in portraying the Arab Spring. They largely advocated principles that accentuated the liberalism paradigm of international relations, such as democracy, international cooperation, and economic independence. These papers placed great emphasis on the possible impact of the Arab Spring on the U.S.’s continued deterrence of radical Islam and terrorism, but essentially none on the possible impact these events might have on the U.S.’s continued dependence on Middle East oil. The opinion journalism of U.S. elite papers is largely determined by journalists, ex-government officials, and scholars within the ʻmedia organizationalʼ and ʻsocial institutionalʼ levels, as well as American ideologies and interests on the ʻsocial systemʼ level.

En España fallecen por suicidio el triple de personas que en accidente de tráfico, pero la muerte intencional sigue siendo un asunto que en las redacciones informativas se silencia por considerar que su visibilidad fomenta el aumento de conductas imitativas. La Organización Mundial de la Salud promueve desde 2000 una guideline para el abordaje informativo del suicidio en la que se proponen comportamientos diferentes: informar con  responsabilidad y de modo que se colabore en dinámicas de prevención. Esta investigación revisa libros de estilo o códigos de conducta de FAPE, de los nueve colegios profesionales de España y de 23 organizaciones profesionales internacionales y analiza las noticias online durante seis meses en una muestra intencional de 11 periódicos de referencia (El País, El Mundo, La Vanguardia, La Voz de Galicia y El Periódico, The Guardian, Le Monde, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Corrieri della Sera y Público) para identificar si existen pautas que orienten el abordaje informativo e intentar determinar si la política informativa apuesta por fomentar el efecto Werther (silencio) o el efecto Papageno (prevención).PALABRAS CLAVE: Medios de comunicación, responsabilidad social,prensa, suicidio.

This study examines the impact of ownership change on media coverage by investigating the impact of Jeff Bezos's (Amazon's owner) purchase of the Washington Post (WP) in October 2013. We collect all articles that have Amazon mentions published by WP and the New York Times (NYT) for 12 months before and 12 months after the acquisition. Then, we use the difference-in-differences method to compare changes in sentiment, length, and time of publication of the articles reported by WP compared to NYT. From the comparison, we show that Amazon's acquisition has posed a certain extent of influence on the publication time of the articles. Our findings highlight that ownership change limits the media's ability to fulfill its role as a watchdog without interference.

O objetivo deste trabalho consiste em compreender as mais variadas formas de representações acerca às eleições do corpo legislativo na Palestina em janeiro de 2006, nas páginas de Notas sobre Gaza do jornalista estadunidense Joe Sacco. Inserida no macro evento da guerra contra o terrorismo, iniciado após os ataques às Torres Gêmeas em setembro de 2001 nos Estados Unidos, as eleições na Palestina foram vencidas pelo grupo militar Hamas, reconhecido como grupo terrorista na Europa, por Israel e Estados Unidos. Em nossa tentativa de analisar as representações acerca dessas eleições, observaremos, além de “Notas sobre Gaza” escolhida como nossa fonte, documentos emitidos pelas Nações Unidas e de periódicos estadunidenses como o The New York Times e The Washington Post. Diante desse escopo de fontes documentais, questionaremos como esses grupos, aqueles que produzem os sistemas de representações e que consequentemente disputam entre si a sua representação do mundo como sendo a “real”, a grande “verdade” criada e estabelecida conforme suas necessidades e seus interesses acerca das eleições na Palestina e especialmente sobre o papel do Hamas nessas eleições. Como metodologia, utilizaremos os preceitos de Jean Starobinsky acerca da análise dos textos literários. Como referencial teórico, nosso estudo será embasado pelo conceito de representações do historiador francês Roger Chartier. Por fim, compreendemos a disparidade existente nas representações entre os meios de comunicação estadunidenses e as representações contidas em “Notas sobre Gaza”, especialmente acerca dos acontecimentos que permeiam o processo de sua produção.

This thesis critically examines the US media framing of the Egyptian Uprisings in 2011 and 2013 to examine whether the coverage was relatively value-neutral or had a value-laden (Neo-Orientalist) perspective. The thesis aims to examine whether the Neo-Orientalist tendency among the Western societies to view religion as the key driving force behind political processesis manifest in the US media as well, or whether the two newspapers try to represent the abovementioned political and economic processes and grievances. To this end, the thesis looks at the articles published in The New York Times and The Washington Post during and after two major events: Mubarak‟s resignation in 2011 and Morsi‟s removal in 2013. A combination of quantitative (content analysis) and qualitative (critical discourse analysis) research demonstrates that news articles and editorials about the 2011 and 2013 uprisings include Neo-Orientalist frames. These articles consider liberal democracy as a universal normative model and contrast it with Islam, portrayed as a fundamentally different, homogeneous and antidemocratic phenomenon linked with instability and violence and singlehandedly influencing democratization process. Compared to 2011, Neo-Orientalist frames become more frequent in 2013; if in 2011, most units adhere to Fukuyama‟s view that Egypt would join the teleological march to liberal democracy, in 2013, the trend reverses and most units, like Huntington, exclude any possibility of democratization. The textual practices of naming, sourcing, presupposition, fore- and backgrounding, used to construct Neo-Orientalist frames, can be related to discursive practices, or the production of text, and larger social practices. As critical discourse analysis shows, the units show pro-Israeli bias and align with the US foreign policy priorities: both the general policy of liberal democracy promotion and the specific strategic interests in Egypt.

The primary purpose of this study is to carry out and present an Appraisal analysis of the discourse of two reports published in the New York Times and the Washington Post newspapers. The specific objective is to identify and analyze the main attitudinal resources employed by the report’s authors to construe and negotiate feelings with their audiences about the Muslim ban incident that was implemented during Trump’s presidency of the United States. Moreover, the study explores the ideological differences from an Appraisal perspective about the travel ban between the selected newspapers. The study revealed that Appreciation resources were used more than other resources in the Washington Post, and the majority of them were addressing the travel restriction. On the other hand, the New York Times report made extensive use of both Judgment and Appreciation resources. In addition, all attitudes in the texts predicted ideological differences, but the Appreciation resources were the most critical predictor of ideological differences between them. This research reveals then which attitudes are more likely to reveal ideological differences.
