Seung-Hui Cho murdered 32 people, wounded 17 others, and took his life at Virginia Polytechnic Institute that day. Although many critical details surrounding the event were unknown or unclear immediately after it took place, local and national media outlets published as much information as possible, even at the risk of inaccurate reporting. For example, one of the first reports published by the media after the rampage described “unimaginable horror as some students were lined up against a wall and shot” by the gunman, who was supposedly not a student and was looking for his girlfriend (Hauser & O’Connor). It was later confirmed that the shooter was 23-year-old Virginia Tech student Seung-Hui Cho, who was not only classified as mentally ill, but was also deemed “an imminent danger to self and others” by a district court in Montgomery County, Virginia, in December of 2005 (Effron).

Since the mid-1980s, the gun industry has embraced increased firepower and capacity to resell the shrinking base of gun buyers in America.1 In the 1980s, a very significant shift in gun design and marketing occurred: high-capacity semiautomatic pistols became the dominant product line. Formerly, the most popular handgun design was the revolver, most often containing six shots. In 1980, semiautomatic pistols accounted for only 32 percent of the 2.3 million handguns produced in America. The majority were revolvers. By 1991 this number had reversed itself with semiautomatic pistols accounting for 74 percent of the 1.8 million handguns produced that year. Domestic Pistol and Revolver Production

Hargis June 2009 © 2009 Jared D. Hargis. All Rights Reserved This thesis titled Through "Foreign" Eyes: The Guardian's Coverage of the Virginia Tech Massacre by JARED D. HARGIS has been approved for the E. W. Scripps School of Journalism and the Scripps College of Communication by Bill Reader Assistant Professor of Journalism Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT HARGIS, JARED D., M.S., June 2009, Journalism Through "Foreign" Eyes: The Guardian's Coverage of the Virginia Tech Massacre (125 pp.) Director of Thesis: Bill Reader This thesis presents a textual analysis and a descriptive content analysis of how the British newspaper The Guardian covered the Virginia Tech school shootings that took place on 16 April 2007. Analysis of the first eight days of coverage, totaling 61 articles, added to the existing research on media coverage of school shootings by understanding how the media lens of an influential British newspaper viewed the “gun culture” of the United States. The results of this study indicate that The Guardian’s coverage suggests that the “gun culture” of the United States may be directly responsible for the Virginia Tech school shootings, and that the newspaper and its readers (via their feedback) have constructed a collective argument that such events are inevitable when guns are so readily accessible as they are in the United States.

  • Hi! Good Morning, All, and Thanks for Joining Us. I'm Karl Blumenthal. I'm a Web Archivist for the Internet Archive's “A
    Hi! Good morning, all, and thanks for joining us. I’m Karl Blumenthal. I’m a web archivist for the Internet Archive’s “Archive-It” service and partnership community. And to begin our discussion of of collaborative web archiving I’d like to introduce a little bit of web archiving’s history and how in fact it was collaboration among many different archivists, technologists, and organizations that made the practice what it is today, and indeed how the lessons learned from that early collaboration are just as vital and important to new web archivists and their subjects today as the ever were, which I think Amy and Sam can then demonstrate in even more living color. So before we dig any deeper into this topic we can first just agree on some specific terminology. What we mean when we say “web archiving” is something like this: its the process of collecting, preserving, and ultimately enabling end-user patron access to materials originally published to the web. There are myriad reasons why libraries and archives perform this labor, but in general, you may find: that the materials you have traditionally collected in print, bound and serial forms, have increasingly shifted to a web-based publishing paradigm--that local organization or academic department might no longer send you their materials on paper but instead may share it all online; and indeed your organization itself may need to meet its own records retention mandate by preserving materials only published to its website or even the website itself; increasingly web archiving is a means to preserve and provide enduring access to events and conversations that exist entirely online, like movements with social media presences.
