Seminar groups, Tuesday February 28th

1) Discuss the distinction between 'issue-spesific frames' and 'generic frames' (de Vreese, chapter 2). Try to find examples of such types of framing in news texts in Norwegian media.

2) de Vreese concludes (p. 165) that the 'European' news story essentially is a domestic story. Discuss the factors influencing a 'national framing' of news.
