| dc.description.abstract | A content analysis of the coverage of the oil crises by three U.S. news magazines, Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News & World Report was designed to determine how well U.S. news magazines contributed to the understanding of a major public policy issue and served the public's need to know. An earlier study on television news coverage of the oil crises by The Media Institute in Washington, D.C., was a guide for the researcher of this work. The goal of this study was to determine the content of communication for accurately predicting the coverage by news magazines on a major public policy issue in the future. A random sample of articles about the oil crises of the seventies by Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News & World� Report were analyzed for differences and similarities that would specify aspects of media coverage that could be improved upon in the future. | |
