ABSTRACT

This article reviews the way in which regional development is framed in a hyperlocal regional newspaper. It presents findings from detailed analysis of selected news articles published in a locally-based newspaper about the progress of a proposal by the Adani group to establish a mine in the Galilee Basin, Central Queensland, Australia (‘the Adani project’). The area has a traditional association with mining, and had experienced an economic downturn due to a reduction in mining activity in the region. We expected that the newspaper would frame the Adani project positively, reflecting local support for the project to promote economic recovery. This was not the case. Environmental concerns about the project were dominant in coverage and themes of political responsibility and attribution of blame emerged. The findings add to limited existing knowledge about regional media in Australia operate, and challenge general assumptions that equate being local with being ‘parochial’.

框架发展:在当地区域性媒体中确定有关“阿达尼项目”的主题

摘要

本文回顾了超地方性地区性报纸对地区发展的构架方式。它提供了对当地报纸上精选新闻报道的详细分析得出的结论,这些新闻报道涉及Adani小组在澳大利亚昆士兰州中部加利利盆地建立矿山的提议的进展(“ Adani项目”)。该地区与采矿业有着传统的联系,并且由于该地区采矿活动的减少而经历了经济衰退。我们希望报纸能对阿达尼项目做出积极的构架,以反映出当地对该项目的支持,以促进经济复苏。此情况并非如此。有关该项目的环境问题在报道中占主导地位,并出现了政治责任和归罪的主题。
