In this article, we focus on the Washington Post’s coverage of busing for racial desegregation between 1968 and 1973. Drawing on work done in the history of emotions, we argue that the Post’s reporting of busing articulated the feelings of an emotional community of local white suburban hostility that operated in reference to a larger national emotional regime of reactionary conservativism that was embodied in the anti-press and anti-busing politics of Nixon and Agnew. We identify three emotives: indignation, fear, and anger, which were the binding forces of an emotional community whose activism had material effects on schooling in the County. Our research demonstrates how while The Washington Post was an integrationist newspaper, the outlet helped to circulate the very emotions that reinforced and justified the organized local opposition to busing.

在这篇文章中，我们关注华盛顿邮报关于 1968 年至 1973 年间种族隔离的报道。借鉴情绪史中所做的工作，我们认为华盛顿邮报对公交车的报道表达了当地白人郊区的一个情感社区的感受这种敌意是针对反动保守主义的更大的民族情感制度而运作的，这种制度体现在尼克松和阿格纽的反新闻和反商业政治中。我们确定了三种情绪：愤慨、恐惧和愤怒，它们是情绪社区的约束力，该社区的激进主义对该县的学校教育产生了实质性影响。我们的研究表明，虽然《华盛顿邮报》是一份融合主义报纸，但该媒体如何帮助传播那些强化和证明当地有组织地反对公交的情绪。
