摘要

Twitter为社会运动参与者、新闻机构和其他人提供了一个在线公共领域，以构建气候变化和气候运动。在本文中，我们分析了2018年至2021年发布的500万条英文推文，展示了推特活动的高峰与关键事件的关系，以及过去三年气候罢工话语的框架是如何演变的。我们还从英语国家(澳大利亚、加拿大、美国、英国)的主要新闻来源收集了3万多篇新闻文章，以展示气候运动参与者和媒体在这一问题的框架、对政策解决方案的关注、责任归属以及动员公民采取行动的努力方面的差异。新闻媒体倾向于报道全球政治家对气候政策的行动、气候变化的后果以及工业对气候危机的反应。不同的是，推特上的气候运动参与者倡导政治行动和政策变化，以及解决围绕气候变化的社会正义问题。我们还发现，Twitter上围绕气候运动的对话高度政治化，大量推文针对的是政客、党派和国家行动者。与传统的主流新闻媒体相比，这些发现有助于我们理解人们如何使用社交媒体来构建政治问题和集体行动。

How Climate Movement Actors and News Media Frame Climate Change and Strike: Evidence from Analyzing Twitter and News Media Discourse from 2018 to 2021

Twitter enables an online public sphere for social movement actors, news organizations, and others to frame climate change and the climate movement. In this paper, we analyze five million English tweets posted from 2018 to 2021 demonstrating how peaks in Twitter activity relate to key events and how the framing of the climate strike discourse has evolved over the past three years. We also collected over 30,000 news articles from major news sources in English-speaking countries (Australia, Canada, United States, United Kingdom) to demonstrate how climate movement actors and media differ in their framing of this issue, attention to policy solutions, attribution of blame, and efforts to mobilize citizens to act on this issue. News outlets tend to report on global politicians’ (in)action toward climate policy, the consequences of climate change, and industry's response to the climate crisis. Differently, climate movement actors on Twitter advocate for political actions and policy changes as well as addressing the social justice issues surrounding climate change. We also revealed that conversations around the climate movement on Twitter are highly politicized, with a substantial number of tweets targeting politicians, partisans, and country actors. These findings contribute to our understanding of how people use social media to frame political issues and collective action, in comparison to the traditional mainstream news outlets.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Press/Politics is an interdisciplinary journal for the analysis and discussion of the role of the press and politics in a globalized world. The Journal is interested in theoretical and empirical research on the linkages between the news media and political processes and actors. Special attention is given to the following subjects: the press and political institutions (e.g. the state, government, political parties, social movements, unions, interest groups, business), the politics of media coverage of social and cultural issues (e.g. race, language, health, environment, gender, nationhood, migration, labor), the dynamics and effects of political communication.
