Summary: | This is a study of photojournalism in the news media during a
Norwegian election campaign. What role do the pictures play and
what place does this visual information have in political journalism?
The analysis is based on still photographs in the print media, moving
images in television news broadcasts and interviews with photojournalists.
The news media picture politicians, rather than political issues
or people affected by political resolution, and the reporting of
politics is supposed to create a sense of intimacy, inform us about
the character of politicians and appeal to our emotions. |
