| Descripción: | Abstract: As a news story topic, climate change has potential narrative elements that include the oil industry and the earth’s climatic balance. With the world’s leading scientists now insisting that the story should be shifting from whether climate change is happening to “What are we going to do about it?” this article offers a critical comparative analysis of how American, Canadian, and international newspapers are framing this key issue. Based on Herman and Chomsky’s (1988) media propaganda model, the findings indicate that while newspapers in the United States might be avoiding the issue, all three “regions” show a hesitancy to frame climate change with either extreme weather consequences or oil reduction solutions.Résumé: Comme sujet d’actualité, le changement climatique a des éléments arratifs attirants, y compris l’industrie pétrolière et l’équilibre climatique de la planète. Maintenant que les savants chefs de file du monde entier, au lieu de se demander si le changement climatique existe vraiment, insistent plutôt qu’il faut mettre l’accent sur ce qu’on va faire à son sujet, cet article offre une analyse comparative critique de la manière dont les quotidiens américains, canadiens et internationaux traitent de ce sujet vital. Cette analyse, qui se fonde sur le modèle de propagande de Herman et Chomsky (1988), indique que les journaux américains évitent de traiter de la question et que les trois « régions » susmentionnées hésitent encore à associer des conséquences extrêmes au changement climatique ou à recommander une réduction dans la consommation du pétrole. |
