How Australian news media outlets (don’t) report on “domestic and family violence” as “terrorism”, and a case for why they maybe should
As found in the first of today's Five Studies About: News Media
Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is The Art of Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you think and write about crime.
Published Tuesdays and Thursdays, Five Studies About is a free tip sheet where I curate recent crime and justice studies related to one topic. Today’s topic is : news media.
These new crime studies related to news media were recently published by journals I monitor:
1. Framing Public vs Private Violence: An Inductive Thematic Analysis of The Australian, The Sydney Morning Herald, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and The West Australian [Violence Against Women]
2. Stockpiling moral panics: The politics of anxiety and the securitization of ‘panic buyers’ in news media reporting of Covid-19 [Crime, Media, Culture: An International Journal]
3. Cable News Source and Fear of Crime: A Comparison of CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC [Victims & Offenders]
4. “We cannot win this fight if we don’t acknowledge any such fight exists”: Examining media coverage of Black women’s risk for intimate partner violence [Crime, Media, Culture: An International Journal]
5. Queering Crime Reporting: Representing Anti-queer Violence in LGBTQ News Media [The British Journal of Criminology]
I might cover some of these studies further in The Practice of Understanding Crime, my other newsletter. If any sound interesting or important, let me know in the comments.
Five Studies About and Crime Research Update are the output of my research discovery system.
