That is not how women are raised. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My dissertation was a stage, and many actors played a part in that production. The lead role was played by my spouse Sonal Mehta who first told me about Jahi McMath. I continue to learn about the world and about myself from him constantly. I am also indebted to my committee for helping me birth this project. Dr. Leigh Moscowitz, thank you for accepting the job offer here and agreeing to let me be your graduate assistant. Thank you for staying through the crises you faced with your homes. Thank you to Dr. Robert McKeever for your encouragement. Thank you, Dr. Kenneth Campbell, for showing me that it possible to be kind and have a career. And thank you, Dr. Daniela Friedman, for always being so quick with emails! I also want to thank Sandra Hughes and Camea Cato for helping me navigate the back-breaking byzantine details of the dissertation process. I am also grateful for my colleagues Kelli Boling and Noura Al Duaijani who analyzed some of my data with me and Denetra Walker who pre-tested my interview guides for me. My interviewees always surprised me with their sincerity and generosity. I thank them for bothering with a project sight unseen for nothing in return. But most of all, I cannot forget the McMaths and their daughter whose lives formed the foundation for my project. I would rather that Jahi had not died and that her loved ones had not gone through any of the things they are still dealing with. I always tried to remember that somewhere underneath all this science were real people. iv ABSTRACT The central concern of this multi-method research project was to investigate newspaper coverage of the controversial brain death case of Jahi McMath. This represents the first study of sense-making of the case in the news media, positioning it at the intersection of science communication and critical qualitative inquiry. First, framing theory was used to guide a textual analysis of 81 newspaper articles from high-circulation newspapers in California. This revealed four frames that first created uncertainty about brain death, thereby permitting two competing frames of Jahi being alive and also being dead to co-exist before merging into a frame that further lay blame for the confusion on science itself. These findings were then used to inform in-depth interviews with two groups of people: the journalists who had written these news articles, and the experts who had been quoted in those articles. Their responses provided insight into the factors that influenced the creation of the previously identified frames – the involvement of multiple journalists, the dynamic of conflict, financial and professional pressures, outside influences, suspicions of racial and economic oppression, and a perception of scientific disagreement about brain death. The interviews also allowed experts to weigh in on the coverage and gave both experts and journalists a chance to describe their relationship with each other in this case. Experts did not all agree about the newsworthiness of the story, perceived the coverage as haphazard, and discussed the impact of the story on expertise. Experts and journalists also expressed asymmetrical need of and satisfaction with each other but remained aware of their relationship. These findings are important v because they highlight the effect that the coverage of complex scientific concepts such as death has on the communication of science and its status in a society mounting increasing resistance to expertise and journalism. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Dedication .......................................................................................................................... iii Acknowledgements ............................................................................................................ iv Abstract ................................................................................................................................v List of Figures ......................................................................................................................x Chapter 1: Introduction ........................................................................................................1 1.1 How Jahi McMath died…twice ...........................................................................7 1.2 What does it mean to die? ..................................................................................10 1.3 Brain death in the modern world ........................................................................15 1.4 Scientific controversies in the media .................................................................21 1.5 Overview of research questions and methodological approaches ......................26 1.6 Outline of dissertation ........................................................................................34 Chapter 2: Methodology ....................................................................................................36 2.1 Rationale for qualitative research design ...........................................................37 2.2 Rationale for critical cultural research ...............................................................39 2.3 Reflexivity in the research process .....................................................................41 2.4 Overview of research design ..............................................................................43 2.5 Ethical considerations ........................................................................................44 2.6 IRB approval ......................................................................................................45 2.7 Data collection methods .....................................................................................45 vii 2.8 Methods for data analysis and synthesis ............................................................51 2.9 Limitations .........................................................................................................55 Chapter 3: Framing: text and process ................................................................................58 3.1 Framing theory ...................................................................................................59 3.2 Frames in newspaper articles .............................................................................67 3.3 The larger framing process ...............................................................................103 3.4 Conclusion ........................................................................................................125 Chapter 4: The science in the story: experts and journalists ............................................134 4.1 A history of science and the media ..................................................................136 4.2 News coverage of science ................................................................................140 4.3 The expert perspective on newspaper coverage of the Jahi McMath case .......146 4.4 The expert-journalist relationship in the Jahi McMath case ............................158 4.5 Conclusion ........................................................................................................173 Chapter 5: Discussion ......................................................................................................177 5.1 A panic about power ........................................................................................179 5.2 Application of findings .....................................................................................185 5.3 Limitations .......................................................................................................187 5.4 Future directions for research ...........................................................................188 References ........................................................................................................................191

Shah* Brain death is different from the traditional, biological conception of death. Al- though there is no possibility of a meaningful recovery, considerable scientific evidence shows that neurological and other functions persist in patients accurately diagnosed as brain dead. Elsewhere with others, I have argued that brain death should be understood as an unacknowledged status legal fiction. A legal fiction arises when the law treats something as true, though it is known to be false or not known to be true, for a particular legal purpose (like the fiction that corporations are persons).

  • Issues with the Determination of Brain Death: the Case for Religious and Moral Exceptions
    Seton Hall University eRepository @ Seton Hall Law School Student Scholarship Seton Hall Law 2020 Issues with the Determination of Brain Death: The Case for Religious and Moral Exceptions Alyson Schwartz Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship Part of the Law Commons Recommended Citation Schwartz, Alyson, "Issues with the Determination of Brain Death: The Case for Religious and Moral Exceptions" (2020). Law School Student Scholarship. 1106. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/1106 I. Introduction The double doors open to the emergency room, where paramedics are wheeling in patients, a child is receiving stiches while holding her mother’s hand, and a patient behind a curtain is screaming as nurses run to him. The hospital corridor is stuffy, and the air has an undertone of bleach. The walls are painted a slate gray and are scraped in places from the hundreds of gurnies that have bumped into them. The pictures on the walls in the waiting room are cheap prints of uplifting scenes. Here in the waiting room, loved ones sit, with anxious faces, some silent and staring off into the distance, others tapping a foot and rustling through last week’s New York Times to keep themselves occupied, others weeping silently in the corner. When a physician walks into the waiting room, all heads turn towards the door, watching the physician, restless to hear their names being called, in hope to find out the fate of their loved one(s). A family’s name is called, and they are escorted into another room. Here they are told that their son was in a major car accident, leading to a traumatic brain injury.

  • Defining Death: Getting It Wrong for All the Right Reasons
    TRUOG.TOPRINTER.RESUBMIT2.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 6/8/2015 11:39 AM Defining Death: Getting It Wrong for All the Right Reasons Robert D. Truog* The Uniform Determination of Death Act defines death as either the irreversible cessation of all circulatory and respiratory functions or of all func- tions of the entire brain. As a matter of scientific fact, many patients declared dead for purposes of organ donation do not meet this legal requirement. In addition, many of these patients have not lost “the integrated functioning of the organism as a whole,” a scientific standard that defines life across the entire biological spectrum, not just in humans. As such, current practices violate the implicit ethical and legal principle known as the “dead donor rule,” which states that vital organs may never be removed from patients before they are dead. I claim that while current practices of organ procurement do cause the death of the patient, they are nevertheless ethical because: (1) they are performed with the patient’s or surrogates’ consent (principle of respect for autonomy), and (2) they do not harm or set back the interests of the patient (principle of nonmaleficence). While the ideal long-term solution is to reframe the ethics of vital-organ donation in terms of these principles rather than the dead donor rule, a more practical short-term solution may be to conceptualize current approaches to defining death as socially acceptable “legal fictions,” acknowledging that they are not biologically valid. Not only would this solution create a more honest and transparent public policy, but it would save lives by increasing both the quantity and the quality of organs available for transplantation.

Health care systems and the consumption of medical goods should therefore be assessed in light of environmental sustainability. While the primary focus of environmental bioethics has been hospitals and health care facilities, ethicists must also address the offerings of the medical industry going forward. My dissertation proposes four principles to assess the environmental sustainability of current and future medical developments, techniques, and procedures. The four principles of green bioethics are: 1. General allocation of resources should precede special interest access: distributive justice 2. Current human needs over current human wants: environmental conservation 3. Simplicity before complexity: reducing dependence on medical intervention 4. The common good should drive health care instead of financial profit: ethical economics.

  • End-Of-Life Liberty in Canada and the United States: Comparative Law and Policy Analysis
    End-of-Life Liberty in Canada and the United States: Comparative Law and Policy Analysis Project Description for a Fulbright Canada Research Chair in Health Law, Policy & Ethics at the University of Ottawa (9422-CA) Thaddeus Mason Pope, JD, PhD Table of Contents • Introduction • Medical Aid in Dying • Medical Futility • Brain Death • Dissemination Plan & Timeline Introduction My Expertise in End of Life Liberty Everybody dies. Unfortunately, not everybody dies well. For more than a decade, I have worked as one of the most influential writers on end-of-life law, ethics, and policy. I rank among the top- 20 most cited health law scholars in the United States, with over 200 publications in leading medical journals, bioethics journals, and law reviews. I co-author the definitive treatise, The Right to Die: The Law of End-of-Life Decisionmaking, and I run the Medical Futility Blog (with over four million page-views). Both hospitals and families have retained me as an expert witness when they litigate end-of-life healthcare issues in the courts. And I have worked as a consultant for word- class organizations like the National Academy of Medicine, American Bar Association, American Thoracic Society, and Hastings Center. While my primary discipline is law, I engage with an international and multi-disciplinary audience, writing and speaking for clinicians, bioethicists, lawyers, patients, and families. My ultimate objective is practical. I assist lawmakers, professional societies, and institutional policy drafters, so that they can safely expand options and improve care for patients. Ottawa’s Unique Advantages Canada has more meaningfully grappled with increasingly pressing end-of-life liberty issues in its courts, legislatures, and other policymaking bodies.

  • Brain Death and the Sanctity of Life Ethic
    Ethics & Bioethics (in Central Europe), 2018, 8 (3–4), 153–165 DOI:10.2478/ebce-2018-0012 The challenge of brain death for the sanctity of life ethic Peter Singer1 Abstract For more than thirty years, in most of the world, the irreversible cessation of all brain function, more commonly known as brain death, has been accepted as a criterion of death. Yet the philosophical basis on which this understanding of death was originally grounded has been undermined by the long-term maintenance of bodily functions in brain dead patients. More recently, the American case of Jahi McMath has cast doubt on whether the standard tests for diagnosing brain death exclude a condition in which the patient is not dead, but in a minimally conscious state. I argue that the evidence now clearly shows that brain death is not equivalent to the death of the human organism. We therefore face a choice: either we stop removing vital organs from brain dead patients, or we accept that it is not wrong to kill an innocent human who has irreversibly lost consciousness. Keywords: definition of death, brain death, sanctity of life, organ transplantation, Jahi McMath I. Introduction In 1968, Black’s Law Dictionary defined death as follows: The cessation of life; the ceasing to exist; defined by physicians as a total stoppage of the circulation of the blood, and a cessation of the animal and vital functions consequent thereupon, such as respiration, pulsation, etc. Twenty years later, most of the world had accepted, with surprisingly little controversy, a new way in which one could be dead, even if one’s heart was beating, one’s blood was circulating, and “animal and vital functions”, including having a pulse, continued.
