Abstract

Media research on intimate partner homicide (IPH) has primarily focused on male perpetrators and female victims. This study analyzed 203 English-language news articles of IPH involving male victims and female perpetrators for the year 2019. Using thematic analysis, we identified two main themes: doubting the victim (who is the victim?) and victim recognition (“he didn’t deserve this”). The findings suggest that male victims of female perpetrated IPH tend to be blamed for their victimization and represented as non-ideal and illegitimate victims in the news media.

父亲、儿子和施暴者：新闻媒体对亲密伴侣凶杀案男性受害者的刻画

媒体对亲密伴侣杀人(IPH)的研究主要集中在男性犯罪者和女性受害者身上。本研究分析了2019年涉及男性受害者和女性加害者的IPH英语新闻报道203篇。通过主题分析，我们确定了两个主要主题:怀疑受害者(谁是受害者?)和承认受害者(“他不应该这样”)。研究结果表明，女性实施的IPH的男性受害者往往被指责为他们的受害者，并在新闻媒体上被描述为不理想和不合法的受害者。
