研究表明，对挑战现状的抗议团体的新闻报道相对批评地对待他们。为了更准确地了解这种报道，本研究内容分析了一组国际报纸（N = 220），以探讨抗议团体的目标和策略之间的关系，从而产生的新闻报道。调查结果表明，一个群体的策略（而不是其目标）在影响报道方面发挥着重要作用。此外，研究结果还表明，抗议的问题和位置间接影响覆盖率，通过他们的关系，一组的战术。对记者和抗议者的影响进行了讨论。
Research shows that news coverage of protest groups that challenge the status quo treats them relatively critically. To develop a more precise understanding of such coverage, this study content analyzes an international set of newspapers (N = 220) to explore the relationships between a protest group's goals and tactics on resulting news coverage. The findings indicate that a group's tactics-more than its goals-play a substantial role in affecting coverage. Furthermore, the findings also show that the protest issue and location indirectly affect coverage through their relationship to a group's tactics. Implications for journalists and protesters alike are discussed.
