The vermin have struck again’
Much of the scholarly attention surrounding the media’s treatment of the so-called ‘war on terror’ has focused on its uncritical replication of the Bush administration’s rhetorical framing of the conflict, in which the September 11 attacks were seen as acts of war initiating a retaliatory war on terror. While this dominant, martial framing is now being challenged, an equally significant framing remains largely unexamined, one as significant to me…
Pop Culture Goes to War
Pop Culture Goes to War, by Geoff Martin and Erin Steuter, explores the persistence of militarism in American popular culture in the war on terror, from 9/11 to the present day. The authors detail the role of Hollywood and the entertainment industries in rallying both the troops and the public for war and show how toys, video games, music, and television support contemporary militarism. At the same time that popular culture is enlisting support f…
At War with Metaphor
When photographs documenting the torture and humiliation of prisoners at Abu Ghraib came to the attention of a horrified public, national and international voices were raised in shock, asking how this happened. At War with Metaphor offers an answer, arguing that the abuses of Abu Ghraib were part of a systemic continuum of dehumanization. This continuum has its roots in our public discussions of the war on terror and the metaphors through which t…
The soldier as hunter
In both political speech and news media discourse, the War on Terror has been persistently metaphorically figured as a hunt for prey. In concert with this figuration, a trope of the soldier as hunter has risen to cultural prominence. This paper examines official government discourses' use of the soldier-as-hunter paradigm, military language and training practice that reflects and augments this paradigm, and media language that uncritically echoes…
The Myth of the Competitive Challenge
When Noam Chomsky was in Saint John and Fredericton in 1996, he spoke about the phenomenon of rollback whereby once-gained social, political and economic progress was being rolled back as economic instability and recession created a climate in which corporate and governmental power could be more directly observed without the impediment of significant social unrest
The Irvings Cover Themselves
This article focuses on the media coverage of a strike at the Irving Oil Refinery in Saint John, New Brunswick, between 1994 and 1996. A variety of central issues are examined, including: monopoly ownership of the New Brunswick media by the Irving Group of Companies, the ideological presentation of strikes in general, and the representation of changing labour relations in a postindustrial, globally oriented society. The four New Brunswick English…
Women against feminism
Cette communication se veut une analyse descriptive à la fois des mouvements sociaux féministes aux États‐Unis et au Canada et des contre‐mouvements anti‐féministes qu'ils ont suscités. L'auteur documente la relation dialectique qui caractèrise ces mouvements depuis un siècle din de mieux élucider la nature et le caractère des deux groups. Une attention particulière est accordée au rôle du mouvement pro‐famille au Canada dans l'opposition aux obj…
Understanding the media/terrorism relationship
Conservative terrorism scholars have made the claim that the media have become a propaganda tool for terrorists and sympathetically portray terrorist activities. This article provides quantitative and qualitative data from Time magazine in 1986 suggesting that this view is mistaken. News production is treated as a social process that both informs and obscures, rather than as a neutral process that simply provides 'objective' facts. The results of…
