【摘要】：学术界用框架理论研究大众媒体与社会运动或骚乱之间关系的著作很多,但主要集中在报纸或电视对反战运动,女性运动,反全球化运动报道的研究上,很少涉及种族的运动或骚乱,尽管这类事件在美国历史上并不罕见。即便有一些论著,但也大部分都是采用描述性的研究方法。2014年的弗格森骚乱使很多人想起了美国历史上的一些类似的种族骚乱,其中最著名的就是1992年洛杉矶骚乱。本文选取1992年洛杉矶骚乱和2014年弗格森骚乱为研究对象,运用框架理论,采取内容分析、文本分析、定性研究与定量研究相结合的方法,研究了美国国家性纸质媒体---以《纽约时报》和《华盛顿邮报》为例,如何报道种族骚乱。同时,考虑到这两起事件发生相隔了20年,意在寻求纸媒对这两起种族骚乱事件的报道是否有重要不同。研究结果发现：相比1992年对洛杉矶骚乱的报道,美国国内纸质媒体在报道2014年弗格森骚乱时,的确有了进步。具体体现在,采用了更多非官方人员的阐释,减少了报道中的种族刻板印象。但是,在对于2014年弗格森骚乱的报道中,过于将骚乱原因归结于警察执法的为问题,而相对削弱了种族问题的重要性,这种疏漏,体现了美国后种族时代的“无视肤色”的核心概念,仍然为维护白种人的优势地位服务。文章通过研究媒体对同一类事件在不同时代的报道,有利于进一步了解社会环境对媒体报道的影响。研究对种族骚乱的报道,也有利于加深对媒体与社会骚乱的关系的理解。
[Abstract]:The academic circles use frame theory to study the relationship between mass media and social movements or riots, but mainly focuses on the newspaper or television reports on anti-war movements, women's movements, anti-globalization movements. Racial movements or riots are rarely involved, although such incidents are not uncommon in American history. But it is also largely descriptive. The 2014 riots in Ferguson reminded many of the similar racial riots in American history. The most famous one is the riots in Los Angeles on 1992. This paper selects the riots in Los Angeles on 1992 and Ferguson on 2014 as the research objects, and adopts the methods of frame theory, content analysis, text analysis, qualitative research and quantitative research. We studied how the national print media-- taking the New York Times and the Washington Post as examples-reported racial riots. And considering that the two events were 20 years apart, The study, which seeks to see if there is a significant difference between the print media's coverage of the two racial riots, found that, compared with the 1992 coverage of the Los Angeles riots, the US print media reported the 2014 riots in Ferguson. There has indeed been progress. This is reflected in the use of more unofficial interpretations, reducing the racial stereotype in the report. But in the report of the 2014 riots in Ferguson, The omission that too much of the rioting was attributed to police law enforcement problems and that the issue of race was relatively less important reflected the core concept of "colour insensitivity" in the post-racial era of the United States. By studying the media coverage of the same type of events at different times, this article is conducive to further understanding the social environment's impact on media reporting. It also helps to deepen the understanding of the relationship between the media and social unrest.
