Oil Spill Recovery in the Media
We examine the collective interpretations of disaster recovery following the Exxon Valdez oil spill as developed in the alternative Alaska Native newspaper, the Tundra Times. With limited comparisons to Alaska state newspapers, we argue that the differences between the Tundra Times and mainstream media extend to the very process by which each venue goes about constructing media packages. We document differences on four media package elements: (1)…
News Media and Technological Risks
The 1962 publication of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring vaulted pesticide risks to a prominent place on the media agenda. This article reports on a study of the relative weight of attention given by the New York Times to alarming or reassuring messages about pesticides in the immediate aftermath of Silent Spring. Theoretically, it uses a combination of inductive and deductive approaches to explain the empirical findings. Three models of media cover…
Illness and the Environment
Toxic Contamination and Communities
The ecological-symbolic perspective posits that community response to toxic contamination is shaped by both the nature of the environmental disruption and the interpretive frames through which those disruptions are apprehended. Full utilization of this perspective has been hampered by the deterministic underpinnings of the current chronic technological disaster model, which presents local conflict as a virtually inevitable outcome of these events…
Risk Assessment and Citizen Participation
Noisy Winter
In this paper, we examine three unanticipated findings from a social constructionist analysis of popular media coverage of the pesticide DDT from the years 1944 to 1961. The first unanticipated finding was the early (1945) appearance of negative or cautionary claims in the media source examined, the New York Times. Second, while negative or cautionary claims about the pesticide did constitute a minority voice during this time period, it was nonet…
