2009年哥本哈根会议是气候变化问题发展的一个重要时刻。但是,在这次会议之前和期间,气候怀疑论者试图影响辩论的性质,因此,大众媒体对哥本哈根的报道方式尤为重要。本文概述了逆向的论点和索赔的轮廓,并评估他们在哥本哈根的报道反映。重点是电视,并延伸到互联网的评估-这两种大众传播模式在现有的文献中代表不足。结果表明,一个更高的知名度的逆向和怀疑主义比也许是健康的,并谈到这些大众媒体的作用,现在和将来,特别是在公众理解的问题所涉及的问题。(C)2011年由爱思唯尔有限公司发布
Copenhagen 2009 was a major moment in the development of climate change as an issue. But climate sceptics before and during this event, sought to influence the nature of debate, and for this reason, the way Copenhagen was covered in the mass media was particularly important. This paper outlines the contours of contrarian arguments and claims, and assesses their reflection in the coverage at Copenhagen. The focus is on television, and extends to the assessment of internet - both modes of mass communication underrepresented in the existing literature. The results suggest a higher profile for contrarians and scepticism than is perhaps healthy, and speak to the role of these mass media, now and in the future, particularly with regard to the issue of public comprehension of the issues involved.
