Description
Summary:The purpose of this study is to examine how Lisa Holm is being portraited in the tabloid Aftonbladet and the morning newspaper Dagens Nyheter through a qualitative text analysis. By examining the two different newspaper genres, it will become clear whether or not there exists similarities or differences in how the newspapers potrays Lisa Holm through the theories of media logic and framing theory. The result of this examination shows an obvious similarity between the two newspapers. This becomes clear as both Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter reported a very similar depiction of the crime victim Lisa Holm, through both framing and journalistic techniques. That means that the newspapers have approached each other in terms of content, and the line dividing the two newspaper genres has been blurred. An undifferentiated and stereotypical image is then being presented of the crime victim Lisa Holm that the readers will take part of.
