From Media Hype to Twitter Storm: News Explosions and Their Impact on Issues, Crises and Public Opinion
Racial hoaxes are becoming a popular discursive strategy to disguise racism, as well as a powerful means for triggering waves of fake news and outraged comments both on mainstream and social media. Built on grounds of plausibility and consistency with existing narratives, racial hoaxes may remain latent for a long time, and periodically emerge when negative stereotypes can be framed as actual news stories. Racial hoaxes have relevant political an…
Do High-Choice Media Environments Facilitate News Avoidance? A Longitudinal Study 1997–2016
The well-known “high-choice news avoidance thesis” and the alternative “network structure perspective” stipulate somewhat conflicting expectations about news consumption in today’s digital media systems. Based on annual survey data from Norway, the article examines news avoidance from 1997–2016, a period when digitalization processes transformed the media environment. Results show that news avoidance increased only marginally. The decrease in use…

Public Perceptions of the Media Coverage of Irregular Immigration: Comparative Insights From France, the United States, and Norway
Irregular immigration has become a globally important topic. While there have been some studies on public opinion toward irregular immigration, virtually no studies have examined how audiences evaluate the media coverage of this issue. There is also a lack of comparative research. The aims of this article are to provide survey data on public opinion toward irregular immigration in the United States, France, and Norway as well as a comparative ana…
Human Interest Framing of Irregular Immigration: An Empirical Study of Public Preferences for Personalized News Stories in the United States, France, and Norway
The media have a strong tendency to frame political issues with a focus on personal and emotional cases. We do not, however, know if there is a close link between the news media's use of these frames and the news preferences of the public. Such a close relationship may exist either because human interest news coverage is driven by audience demand or because the public might be influenced by the degree of individual news stories in the news. On th…
The Limits of the Debate: How the Oslo Terror Shook the Norwegian Immigration Debate
How do disruptive events such as terrorism, disasters, and crises change public discourses? Do they alter journalistic distinctions between legitimate utterances and unacceptable viewpoints? This article provides answers to these questions through a unique data set concerning the coverage of immigration in Norway before and after the Oslo terror of 2011. The data serve as a natural experiment where we can analyze how immigration discourse was cha…
Elitene, minoritetene og mediene – Definisjonsmakt i norsk innvandringsdebatt
Den norske innvandringsdebatten er blitt kritisert for å være dominert av en moralistisk, politisk korrekt elite. Gjennom en kvantitativ kildeanalyse av alle nyheter og meningsytringer i de største norske mediene i 2011 finner vi at «makteliten» (politikere, byråkrater og rettsvesen) er de mest brukte kildene. Makteliten siteres primært i nyhetsformatet og er oftere på tv enn andre kilder, men er fraværende i debattformatene. Regjeringskilder er …
Election Campaigns, Issue Focus and Voting Intentions: Survey Experiments of Norwegian Voters
This article investigates whether and how changes in issue focus in election campaigns affect voting intention, even if no preference change takes place, and whether such effects vary systematically across different groups of voters. Evidence is reported from two survey experiments of Norwegian voters, where respondents were treated with information drawing their attention towards issues pertaining either to immigration or the environment. Althou…
