Representing public service and post-militariness in Bodyguard (BBC, 2018)
The opening episodes of BBC1ʹs Bodyguard (2018) broke records for a drama debut, the highest launch figure for any new drama across all channels in the United Kingdom since 2006. This article examines the hit series with a particular focus on notions of public service and post-military identity. The paper explores how the drama conveys ‘public service’ in the UK context at this specific historic moment, adding to writer Jed Mercurio’s oeuvre of d…
Seeing human rights: Video activism as a proxy profession
As the visual turn in politics and International Relations becomes more established, scholars are enriching the subfield with specialized studies in the forms of political and legal work undertaken by key institutions (see e.g. Mary Angela Bock's Seeing justice: witnessing, crime, and punishment in visual media, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2021). Sandra Ristovska's new book examines how human rights organizations and collectives are becoming…
Quantitative Content Analysis of the Visual
This chapter presents an overview of quantitative visual content analysis as a method, how it can support scholars in answering certain research problems or questions and how to circumvent its shortcomings through robust design and the use of complementary combined methods. I hope to show that content analysis helps us to examine important questions of ideological influence and the ways in which particular versions of reality are constructed and …

Media Relations of the Anti-War Movement: The Battle for Hearts and Minds
When he’s in Afghanistan it’s like our world/his world’: Mediating military experience
This article reports on a qualitative research project which invited those with direct experience – as serving personnel involved in media operations, military veterans and forces family members – to respond to a variety of media genres and discuss how such portrayals of military experience correspond with their own perceptions and their own representational practices. It is our contention that such mediations offer significant and interconnected…
The Mediated City: The News in a Post-Industrial Context
How does news circulate in a major post-industrial city? And how in turn are identities and differences formed and mediated through this circulation? This seminal work is the first to offer an empirical examination, and trace a city’s pattern of, news circulation. Encompassing a comprehensive range of practices involved in producing, circulating and consuming ‘news’ and recognizing the various ways in which individuals and groups may find out, fo…

The first ‘Clean’ war? Visually framing civilian casualties in the British Press during the 2003 Iraq invasion
This article examines the visual coverage of civilian casualty incidents in the first month of the Iraq invasion in 2003, drawing on a detailed and comprehensive content and framing analysis of Iraq war photographs printed in seven British national newspapers. The study found that around 7 per cent of all Iraq-related news photographs dealt with the issue of civilian casualties (including journalists and non-Iraqis), across tabloid and ‘quality’ …
Political Culture and Media Genre: Beyond the News
Exploring the forms and meanings of mediated politics beyond the news cycle, this book encompasses genres drawn from television, radio, the press and the internet, assessing their individual and colle
Images of liberation? Visual framing, humanitarianism and British press photography during the 2003 Iraq invasion
Although the 2003 Iraq invasion was not wholly framed as a ‘humanitarian intervention’, the rhetoric of bringing liberation, democratization and human rights to the Iraqi people was widely advanced by the coalition and supporters as a legitimating reason for war. This article assesses the role played by press photography in legitimizing or challenging this crucial framing during the invasion across a range of UK national newspapers. Privileging v…
Testing Models of Media Performance in Wartime: U.K. TV News and the 2003 Invasion of Iraq
Debate over media coverage of foreign affairs has been dominated by a range of theoretical positions, here characterized as the ‘elite-driven,’‘independent’ and ‘oppositional’ models. In this article, we explore the relative cogency of these theoretical positions in the context of British media coverage of the 2003 Iraq War. We find that coverage generally conformed to the elite-driven model, reinforcing the coalition. Nevertheless, our analysis …
U.K. Media and Media Management During the 2003 Invasion of Iraq
Media's role in wartime has long been the subject of controversy, marked by claims that media promote, or indeed constrain, military action, and over the impact of patriotism and new technologies on wartime levels of media autonomy. Based on a detailed examination of U.K. press and television coverage of the 2003 invasion of Iraq and of the U.S./U.K. coalition's media briefings, this report summarizes initial findings concerning media management …
Reporting Dissent in Wartime: British Press, the Anti-War Movement and the 2003 Iraq War
A B S T R A C T ■ The 2003 Iraq War was highly controversial in the UK, generating domestic opposition and a widely supported anti-war movement, the Stop the War Coalition. This article assesses the extent to which anti-war protesters were successful at securing positive coverage in the British press immediately before and during the invasion of Iraq. The study shows that, although anti-war protesters received more favourable than unfavourable co…
