对来自美国主流媒体-网络和有线电视新闻媒体,新闻网站,报纸和新闻杂志-的1,822张图像的内容分析显示,美国的视觉框架- 2003年,美国领导的对伊拉克的入侵从冲突转向了人类利益。在战役的前5周,5个不同的主题震慑、征服军队、英雄、胜利和控制经常围绕着标志性的图像结合在一起,并支持其他学者认为的“主战争叙事”。这些视觉框架反映了从南北战争到海湾战争的美国历次战争开始时,媒体内容中政府倡导的爱国主义观点。
A content analysis of 1,822 images from U.S. mainstream media—network and cable television news outlets, news Web sites, newspapers, and news magazines—revealed that the visual framing of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 shifted from conflict to human interest. During the campaign's first 5 weeks, 5 distinct scenarios—shock and awe, conquering troops, hero, victory, and control—often coalesced around iconic images and supported a “master war narrative” identified by other scholars. These visual frames reflected a government-promoted patriotic perspective seen in media content at the outset of previous U.S. wars, from the Civil War through the Gulf War.
