Preferred term

social movements and journalism  

Definition

  • Social movements have relied heavily on news media not only to publicize their missions and goals but to create positive attitudes and opinions from the public. However, mainstream news media have often portrayed social movements as marginal or even deviant groups. [Source: Encyclopedia of Journalism; Social Movements and Journalism]
