Print Media Framing of the Environmental Movement in a Canadian Forestry Debate

摘要

In a recent paper, it was suggested that one of the reasons behind the decline in public regard toward British Columbia's environmental movement was an in- creasingly negative portrayal of them by the print media. To Investigate this suggestion, we undertook a content analy- Sis of print media reporting of forestry and environmental Activities in the province's most widely read newspaper, the Vancouver Sun, during 1993 and 1997.
