FRAMING JEWELL: A DISCOURSE ANALYSIS OF NEWSPAPER COVERAGE IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE ATLANTA OLYMPICS BOMBING AND DISCUSSION OF LEGAL AND ETHICAL STANDARDS FOR SUCH PRACTICES A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of Master of Mass Communication In The Manship School of Mass Communication by: Anne L. Songy B.A., Louisiana State University, 1991 August 2010 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am forever indebted to a number of people for their roles in the completion of this project. My sincere thanks go to my thesis chairman, Dr. Craig Freeman, whose patience and skill were the driving force behind my success. Despite my frequent diatribes about the merits of prior restraint (and similar Communist practices), he allowed me the freedom to examine my arguments and find the truth on my own. I am equally grateful to Dr. Lou Day, whose remarkable knowledge in the field of media ethics provided me a sure foundation on which to expand my study. Dr. Rick Popp’s enthusiasm for qualitative research changed the way I view mass media studies and impacted this project profoundly. I am honored to have been mentored by all three of these fine professors. I would also like to thank two friends and colleagues: Teresa Day, who planted the seed five years ago, and Dena Arnone, who cheered me on every step of the way. Lastly, I hold the highest regard and appreciation for three individuals whose sacrifice and support cushioned this long and rocky road. I am forever thankful to my mother, Anne G. Shirley, who shared with me her deep respect and affection for the power of the English language. To my son, Daniel, who has sacrificed a great deal to allow me this opportunity, I promise I will not pursue another degree until he has left for college. Finally, to my husband Moe Songy, I am exceedingly grateful for his unyielding devotion to me and my endeavors. His encouragement and sacrifice were instrumental in my success, and his positive attitude was strong enough for both of us. He is indeed a rare and precious find. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ........................................................................................................ ii ABSTRACT...............................................................................................................................v CHAPTERS INTRODUCTION .........................................................................................................1 LITERATURE REVIEW ..............................................................................................3 METHODOLOGY .....................................................................................................14 FINDINGS..................................................................................................................26 Frame Clusters ...................................................................................................26 The Reluctant Hero..................................................................................26 Jewell is Guilty ........................................................................................27 United We Stand......................................................................................29 Media Self-Coverage ...............................................................................32 Discursive Tactics..............................................................................................34 SOCIETAL DISCUSSION..........................................................................................36 Mythology and Framing ....................................................................................36 Symbolism and Framing....................................................................................42 Storytelling and Framing ...................................................................................45 Society and Framing ..........................................................................................47 LEGAL DISCUSSION................................................................................................49 A Brief History of Libel.....................................................................................49 Regarding Jewell................................................................................................55 Viability of False Light......................................................................................59 Broader Implications..........................................................................................61 ETHICS DISCUSSION...............................................................................................64 Theoretical Framework......................................................................................65 Self-Restraint .....................................................................................................69 Explanations.......................................................................................................72 The Journalist...........................................................................................72 The News Organization ...........................................................................74 Industry Standards ...................................................................................78 Collective Mindset of the Profession.......................................................80 Pack Mentality ...............................................................................80 First Amendment Righteousness ...................................................81 Pretending for Democracy .............................................................82 iii CONCLUSIONS..........................................................................................................85 REFERENCES ........................................................................................................................93 VITA......................................................................................................................................110 iv ABSTRACT This study examines the newspaper coverage of Richard Jewell during the weeks after the 1996 Atlanta Olympics bombing. Jewell, a security guard working in the Olympic Park on July 27, 1996, was initially hailed as a hero due to his discovery of a bomb minutes before the explosion. After Jewell’s name was leaked to the press as an FBI person of interest in the case, many reporters began to frame Jewell in a negative light and, in some instances, even implied his guilt. Through a discourse analysis of news stories published between the date of the bombing and the date Jewell was officially removed as a suspect (three months), four distinct framing clusters are identified in this study: The Reluctant Hero, He is Guilty, United We Stand, and Media Self-Coverage. Discursive tactics used to support these themes are identified as word choice, source choice and use of unnecessary information. The roles of myths, symbols, storytelling, and society in frame-making provide the foundation for an in-depth discussion about the broader meanings and implications of the news frames found in the coverage of the bombing. This study finds that frames are prevalent in media coverage and play an essential role in society, but they are sometimes misused by the press in such a way that harms individuals. A subsequent legal discussion underscores the courts’ dogged protection of First Amendment rights in these situations and the dilemmas that develop when a private individual is ruled to be a public figure in the defamation lawsuit. An additional examination of news media ethics offers possible reasons journalists resort to the types of discursive tactics found in the Jewell coverage; specifically, this study finds explanations that pertain to the journalist, the newsroom, industry guidelines, and the collective mindset of the profession. v INTRODUCTION Framing is an often-used tactic the news media employ to present their own adaptations of stories. Gamson & Modigliani (1987) define a frame as “a central organizing idea or story line that provides meaning to an unfolding strip of events, weaving a connection among them” (p. 143). The media frame possesses a great deal of power and can help to assign blame for a social problem, to take another issue out of public focus, or to intimate a person’s

Lieser December 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Catherine Gudis, Chairperson Dr. Molly McGarry Dr. Kiril Tomoff Copyright by Josh R. Lieser 2014 The Dissertation of Josh R. Lieser is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Los Angeles and the 1984 Olympic Games: Cultural Commodification, Corporate Sponsorship, and the Cold War by Josh R. Lieser Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in History University of California, Riverside, December 2014 Dr. Catherine Gudis, Chairperson The 1984 Olympics offer an unprecedented opportunity to consider the way that sports were used as cultural and ideological warfare or soft power in the late stages of the Cold War era. Despite the Soviet Union’s decision to boycott the Olympics in Los Angeles in 1984, the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics were a claimed “victory” by President Ronald Reagan in the Cultural Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. Los Angeles won the right to host the games, and was a politically prudent choice for the United States within the context of the Cultural Cold War. The complicated history of Los Angeles and its constructed post-WWII identity are important elements to the choice of Los Angeles as host city. The Soviet boycott of the 1984 Olympic Games by the Soviet Union is central to the buildup to 1984, but due to the financial success of the Games the Soviet absence was not the crisis that many predicted.

  • Anti-Choice Violence and Intimidation
    Anti-Choice Violence and Intimidation A campaign of violence, vandalism, and intimidation is endangering providers and patients and curtailing the availability of abortion services. Since 1993, eight clinic workers – including four doctors, two clinic employees, a clinic escort, and a security guard – have been murdered in the United States.1 Seventeen attempted murders have also occurred since 1991.2 In fact, opponents of choice have directed more than 6,400 reported acts of violence against abortion providers since 1977, including bombings, arsons, death threats, kidnappings, and assaults, as well as more than 175,000 reported acts of disruption, including bomb threats and harassing calls.3 The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE) provides federal protection against the unlawful and often violent tactics used by abortion opponents. Peaceful picketing and protest is not prohibited and is explicitly and fully protected by the law.4 State clinic protection laws in 16 states and the District of Columbia, as well as general statutes prohibiting violence, provide additional protection.5 Although the frequency of some types of clinic violence declined after the 1994 enactment of FACE, violence at reproductive-health centers is far from being eradicated.6 Vigorous enforcement of clinic-protection laws against those who use violence and threats is essential to protecting the lives and well-being of women and health-care providers.

  • Introduction to Forensic Science
    Introduction to Forensic Science Serial Killers I. Definition A. Serial murders - repetitive homicides, nearly always one-on-one murders, where the perpetrator is usually a stranger or has a slight acquaintance to the victim. (Historically, the majority of homicide victims knew their killer, but during the 1990's, this figure changed. Statistics from 1995's Uniform Crime Reports state that 55% of homicide victims have no known association with the perpetrators.1) The serial murderer’s motivation to kill is not based on crimes of passion, victim precipitation, personal gain or profit. Serial murderers are nearly always males prompted by sexual or aggressive drives to exert power through killing.2 B. Modus operandi - a characteristic pattern of behavior repeated in a series of offenses. The following are categories of modus operandi devised by Major L.W. Atcherley, an English constable in the 1800's. 1. Classword - the kind of property attacked, such as a house, a college dormitory, people parked in cars at lover's lanes 2. Entry - the point of entry, such as open bedroom windows, sliding glass doors 3. Means - implements or tools that were used, such as a pry bar, ladder, screw driver 4. Object - kind of property taken, such as bras and panties 5. Time - time of day or night, weekdays, non-work days, holidays (when people would not miss the perpetrator at work) 6. Style - the description the criminal gives the victim to gain entrance (plumber, cable TV repairman) 7. Tale - any disclosure the criminal makes as to his business/purpose 8. Pals - any co-conspirators 9.

  • Guarding America: Security Guards and U.S. Critical Infrastructure Protection
    Order Code RL32670 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Guarding America: Security Guards and U.S. Critical Infrastructure Protection November 12, 2004 Paul W. Parfomak Specialist in Science and Technology Resources, Science, and Industry Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Guarding America: Security Guards and U.S. Critical Infrastructure Protection Summary The Bush Administration’s 2003 National Strategy for the Physical Protection of Critical Infrastructures and Key Assets indicates that security guards are “an important source of protection for critical facilities.” In 2003, approximately one million security guards (including airport screeners) were employed in the United States. Of these guards, analysis indicates that up to 5% protected what have been defined as “critical” infrastructure and assets. The effectiveness of critical infrastructure guards in countering a terrorist attack depends on the number of guards on duty, their qualifications, pay and training. Security guard employment may have increased in certain critical infrastructure sectors since September 11, 2001, although overall employment of U.S. security guards has declined in the last five years. Contract guard salaries averaged $19,400 per year in 2003, less than half of the average salary for police and well below the average U.S. salary for all occupations. There are no U.S. federal requirements for training of critical infrastructure guards other than airport screeners and nuclear guards. Twenty-two states do require basic training for licensed security guards, but few specifically require counter-terrorism training. State regulations regarding criminal background checks for security guards vary. Sixteen states have no background check regulations.
