Mass Vs Quality Newspapers in Thailand, 1976 and 1989: a Comparative Content Analysis
Abstract
This study is a comparative content analysis of Thailand's mass and quality newspapers in 1976 and in 1989. The primary objectives are to find out if the change in the system of government between these two years affected the distribution of content between the two newspapers and within each newspaper between the two periods. Western theories of the press like Hachten's five concepts of the press, representing a static model, and Schillinger's dynamic motive of the world press, representing a dynamic model, are used in this study to test if they are applicable �ta explain, describe, and predict Thai press obligations and performances.
