| Abstract
|
:
|
The portrayal of race in news media has received much attention over the past few decades by scholars. Despite this, no unifying theoretical approach for analysis has been developed or employed. Further, little attention to Internet news has been paid. This dissertation was developed and carried out to address both issues. A content analysis of the top twenty Traditional and Non-Traditional news websites (as ranked by Alexa Media Research), was performed. A sample was collected from one year of news content resulting in a representative composite month for each website. Comparisons to United States Census data and examinations of stereotypic, stereotype-neutral and counter-stereotypic portrayals were conducted.
