• What's in a Frame? A Content Analysis of Media Framing Studies in the World's Leading Communication Journals, 1990-2005

This paper provides a systematic analysis of media framing studies in the world's leading communication journals. A quantitative content analysis of 131 studies published in fifteen international journals demonstrates how frames are conceptualized and measured. Current problems in framing research include lack of operational precision, the descriptive focus of many analyses, neglect of visuals, and insufficient reporting of reliability.

• Representing the Third Wave: Mainstream Print Media Framing of a New Feminist Movement

This study analyzes the framing of third wave feminism to determine whether journalists are recycling stock frames commonly used to portray the women's movement of the 1970s. Using textual and content analyses, the author draws from more than ten years' worth of news stories to identify current framing patterns. The findings reveal that journalists have jettisoned some of the more negative frames, but still tend to depict third wave feminism in ways that distort its identity and purpose. The study reveals that the third wave is defined against the second wave in ways that disparage second wave actors and accomplishments, ultimately weakening feminism overall.

• Leaders As Linchpins for Framing Meaning

Community college leaders serve as linchpins for framing meaning on campus. The current pressures on institutions (given declining financial resources, demands for accountability, changing faculty ranks, and societal need for new knowledge) require presidents to juggle multiple priorities while presenting a cohesive message to campus constituents. This study examined how the presidents at nine community colleges communicated with college constituents and framed the meaning of those communications to help the college community make sense of ongoing change. Interviews with the presidents, as well as with key administrators, faculty members, and staff members, revealed that the presidents used emissaries to disseminate information in four distinct ways. Study findings also showed that the ...
