The framing analysis found that military frames dominated the photographic coverage at the expense of a wider context for the invasion. The coverage showed the strength and superiority of the military, and focused on soldiers. Two other major sets of frames were politics and humanization. The frames provided evidence that the embed system impacted the visual coverage by providing increased access to combat, soldiers, and Iraqi citizens. The Associated Press' photographs offered an international perspective as compared with the U.S.-centered images in the news magazines. In terms of the compositional elements used in photographs, the study found that the news organizations conveyed a sense of credibility by using images that acted as records of events and that minimized the constructed nature of photographs by using few compositional elements. | | Subject | : | Communication and the arts; Fine arts; Journalism; Mass communications; 0708:Mass communications; 0357:Fine arts; 0391:Journalism | | Added Entry | : | D.
