摘要

本研究通过对来自10个国际新闻来源的新闻报道(n = 135)进行内容分析，调查了外国媒体对尼日利亚2019年大选的报道。本研究旨在评估选举报道中出现的主要框架，以及国际新闻来源在尼日利亚2019年大选报道中使用的语气。经验证据表明，政治制度框架、人类利益/人民框架和暴力框架是国际新闻来源中出现的主要框架。我们还发现，国际媒体对尼日利亚2019年大选的报道基调是中立的，尽管以负面和批评方式报道的新闻报道总数也相对明显，尤其是美国新闻来源。总体而言，我们得出的结论是，外国媒体对尼日利亚2019年大选的报道和框架相对中立，因此保持了新闻业和选举报道的历史悠久的基本价值观——平衡和公平。

“Looking from the Outside in”: A Study on the International Media Coverage and Framing of Nigeria's 2019 General Election

ABSTRACT This study investigates the foreign media coverage of Nigeria's 2019 general election through a content analysis of news stories (n = 135) obtained from 10 international news sources. This study aims to evaluate the dominant frames that emerged in the coverage of the election as well as the tones used by the international news sources in the coverage of Nigeria's 2019 general election. Empirical evidence reveals that the political system frame, human interest/people frame, and violence frame are the major frames that emerged from the international news sources. We also found that the tone of the international media coverage of Nigeria's 2019 general election was neutral, although the sum of news stories reported in a negative and critical manner was also relatively noticeable, especially by the American news sources. Overall, we conclude that the foreign media coverage and framing of Nigeria's 2019 general election were relatively neutral, hence maintaining the time-honoured fundamental values of journalism and election coverage—balance and fairness.

期刊介绍： Accredited by the South African Department of Higher Education and Training for university research purposes African Journalism Studies subscribes to the Code of Best Practice for Peer Reviewed Scholarly Journals of the Academy of Science of South Africa. African Journalism Studies ( AJS) aims to contribute to the ongoing extension of the theories, methodologies and empirical data to under-researched areas of knowledge production, through its emphasis on African journalism studies within a broader, comparative perspective of the Global South. AJS strives for theoretical diversity and methodological inclusivity, by developing theoretical approaches and making critical interventions in global scholarly debates. The journal''s comparative and interdisciplinary approach is informed by the related fields of cultural and media studies, communication studies, African studies, politics, and sociology. The field of journalism studies is understood broadly, as including the practices, norms, value systems, frameworks of representation, audiences, platforms, industries, theories and power relations that relate to the production, consumption and study of journalism. A wide definition of journalism is used, which extends beyond news and current affairs to include digital and social media, documentary film and narrative non-fiction.
