项目摘要

The proposed research will provide insight into the power of the news media to covertly shape public attitudes towards pressing global issues, including the climate crisis as well as activism as a social practice.The climate crisis can be considered one of the biggest issues facing humanity today. Amidst rising climate urgency from scientific bodies, since 2018 the UK has seen a wave of high-profile climate change protests which have gained public and political attention. Now, recent changes to government policy have introduced stricter laws governing UK citizens' right to protest. In light of this, the present research aims to explore how climate protests have been represented in the UK press from 2018 to 2022. Contributing to a growing body of research which combines corpus assisted CDA (critical discourse analysis) and experimental methods (Fuoli & Hart, 2018; Hart, 2018), the proposed research will take a mixed-methods approach in order to investigate whether fine-grained grammatical choices made by the UK press in reporting Climate Change protests can meaningfully influence audience attitudes.The research will begin with a CDA investigation into how the UK press has used subtle grammatical framing strategies to encourage certain interpretations of climate protest events from 2018-2022. Then, through experimental methods the study will verify the claims put forward by this analysis by investigating the effects of these identified grammatical framing strategies on audience evaluations.

这项拟议中的研究将深入了解新闻媒体的力量，以秘密地塑造公众对紧迫的全球问题的态度，包括气候危机以及作为社会实践的行动主义。气候危机可以被认为是当今人类面临的最大问题之一。随着科学机构对气候变化的紧迫性不断上升，自2018年以来，英国发生了一系列备受瞩目的气候变化抗议活动，这些抗议活动引起了公众和政治界的关注。现在，最近政府政策的变化已经引入了更严格的法律来管理英国公民的抗议权。有鉴于此，本研究旨在探讨2018年至2022年英国媒体如何报道气候抗议活动。为越来越多的结合语料库辅助CDA的研究做出贡献（批判性话语分析）和实验方法（Fuoli &哈特，2018;哈特，2018年），拟议的研究将采取混合方法的方法，以调查是否罚款，英国媒体在报道气候变化抗议活动时所做的细致的语法选择可以有意义地影响观众的态度。这项研究将从CDA开始开始调查英国媒体如何使用微妙的语法框架策略来鼓励对2018-2022年气候抗议事件的某些解释。然后，本研究将通过实验的方法，通过考察这些语法框架策略对观众评价的影响来验证本文的分析。
