ABSTRACT This project employs framing theory to analyze the gender ideologies present in local coverage of the Democratic Party’s official nomination of Hillary Clinton in battleground counties. By applying framing theory, this study aims to uncover how journalists covered her bid to “win the day” over her male opponents, Democratic challenger Bernie Sanders and Republican nominee (and now president) Donald Trump. The study revealed that the ideological residue related to her “deviant” gender identity shaped journalistic reactions to her nomination as the first female major-party presidential candidate. It argues that it was not Clinton’s identity as the “feminist presidential candidate” but rather her expertise in gender code-switching that encouraged journalists to write flatteringly about her.

为挑战做好准备：对希拉里克林顿在 2016 年民主党全国代表大会战场报道中的性别化新闻框架的批判性话语分析

摘要 该项目采用框架理论来分析民主党在战场县正式提名希拉里克林顿的地方报道中存在的性别意识形态。通过应用框架理论，这项研究旨在揭示记者如何报道她为战胜男性对手民主党挑战者伯尼桑德斯和共和党候选人（现任总统）唐纳德特朗普而“赢得胜利”的努力。研究显示，与她“越轨”的性别认同相关的意识形态残留影响了新闻界对她被提名为首位女性主要政党总统候选人的反应。它认为，并不是克林顿作为“女权主义总统候选人”的身份，而是她在性别代码转换方面的专业知识，鼓励记者对她进行谄媚的报道。
