Each of our programs was created to foster these important objectives.

    SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE EQUIVALENCY FRAMES IN THE #METOO ERA: DO THEY MATTER? JENNIFER CASTOE SPRING 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Digital and Print Journalism and Political Science with honors in Political Science Reviewed and approved* by the following: Eric Plutzer Professor of Political Science and Sociology Thesis Supervisor Michael Berkman Professor of Political Science Honors Adviser * Electronic approvals are on file i ABSTRACT The #MeToo movement sparked a national conversation about sexual harassment and assault in the United States, including about which language should be used when engaging in this conversation. Women’s rights and sexual violence advocacy groups, before and especially since the birth of the #MeToo movement, have provided guidelines on recommended language use for sexual violence stories. This thesis includes a content analysis of the terms that are used in the coverage of ten events within the first year of the #MeToo movement by seven national media outlets, four of which lean liberal and three lean conservative, and labels those terms according to the advocacy groups’ recommendations. The seven media outlets altogether used recommended terms roughly 75% of the time, and the liberal media used recommended terms more often than the conservative media, suggesting that ideological bias could influence how reporters write about sexual harassment and assault. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................
