  • The Quarterbacks of the NFL Draft: a Study Into the Media Coverage of the 2012 & 2020 First Round Quarterbacks
    The Quarterbacks of the NFL Draft: A Study into the Media Coverage of the 2012 & 2020 First Round Quarterbacks Christopher F. Clements Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Communications Stephanie Smith (Chair) Chelsea Woods Nneka Logan May 10, 2020 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: thematic analysis, sports media, framing theory, race The Quarterbacks of the NFL Draft: A Study into the Media Coverage of the 2012 & 2020 First Round Quarterbacks Christopher F. Clements Abstract This study seeks to identify, understand, and compare the themes created, by the print media, utilized to ascribe identity to college quarterbacks as they are entering the NFL Draft. The study will compare the four first-round quarterbacks from the 2020 NFL Draft and four first- round quarterbacks from the 2012 NFL Draft; which because of its historic nature of being the first draft to include a white and Black quarterback of drafted number one and two, respectively, is used as a baseline. The study uses framing theory and previous research to understand the themes present in the media coverage of these quarterbacks from the 2020 NFL Draft and the 2012 NFL Draft. A total of 112 newspaper articles from the Newsbank database were analyzed using qualitative research methods to compare the differences in frames that exist due to the racial background of each quarterback. Additionally, the difference in narratives and expressed frames, depicted by the print media over an eight-year time span were compared and examined using framing theory.

    A HOWARD COUNTY, TEXAS PRIMER VOLUME I A HOWARD COUNTY, TEXAS PRIMER A SUBJECTIVE SURVEY OF NOTABLE PEOPLE, PLACES, EVENTS & HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES VOLUME I BY DOYLE PHILLIPS & FRIENDS A McGONAGILL PUBLICATON BIG SPRING, TEXAS 1997 A HOWARD COUNTY, TEXAS PRIMER VOLUME I PROLOGUE Throughout the production of this book I realized again that Howard County is unique in West Texas, probably because of its geography. Situated at a major geological junction and blessed with many water sources, the area has attracted beasts and humankind since the most ancient of times. Both prehistoric and Indian tribes hunted the animals that lived so plentifully near the water and on the prairie. Spaniards, vaqueros, buffalo hunters, merchants, railroaders, farmers and oilmen are a few of our historical antecedents. Significant events and activities—the good and bad—of our species have added up to a rich cultural milieu. The Primer is a collection of small and grand topics that we hope will interest everyone with Howard County connections. The listings herein are far from complete, and in many cases they are just notes to point the reader to more detailed sources of information. Please feel free to send us your information and we will try to include it in the second volume. Thanks and to the many people who have worked on this book and especially to Joe Pickle for all his interest: Nila Allen Leon Byrd Jim Burleson Wade Choate Tommy and Lauri Churchwell Jack Cook Leslie Clements Glynnie Evans Ed Fisher Annette Hodnett China Long Bruce Parker Carl Dale and Earlene Reid Maqueline Shortes Kathryn Thomas and many others.
