Objectives: The mass media play a crucial role in risk communication regarding climate change. The aim of this study was to investigate the trend in journalistic reports on climate change in the daily newspapers of Korea. Methods: We selected 9 daily newspapers in Korea, which according to the ABC Association, represented 77% of newspaper circulation, out of a total of 44 Korean daily newspapers. The collected articles were from 2009 to 2011. All of the articles were sorted into the following 8 categories: greenhouse gas, climate change conventions, sea level rise, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change synthesis reports, expected damage and effect, use of fossil fuels, global warming, and mitigation or adaptation. A chi-squared test was done on the articles, which were counted and classified into cause, effect, and measurement of climate change according to the newspaper's majority or minority ownership structure. Results: From the 9 selected newspapers, the number of articles on climate change by month was greatest in December 2009. Generally, the articles vague about climate change (lack of precise data, negative or skeptical tone, and improper use of terminology) were much more common than the articles presenting accurate knowledge. A statistical difference was found based on ownership structure: the majority-owned newspapers addressed the cause of climate change, while the minority-owned newspapers referred more to climate change measurement. Conclusions: Our investigation revealed that generally Korean daily newspapers did not deliver accurate information about climate change. The coverage of the newspapers showed significant differences according to the ownership structure.

Purpose: This study tried to understand discourses of life-sustaining treatments in general daily and healthcare newspapers. Methods: A text-network analysis was conducted using the NetMiner program. Firstly, 572 articles from 11 daily newspapers and 258 articles from 8 healthcare newspapers were collected, which were published from August 2013 to October 2016. Secondly, keywords (semantic morphemes) were extracted from the articles and rearranged by removing stop-words, refining similar words, excluding non-relevant words, and defining meaningful phrases. Finally, co-occurrence matrices of the keywords with a frequency of 30 times or higher were developed and statistical measures-indices of degree and betweenness centrality, ego-networks, and clustering-were obtained. Results: In the general daily and healthcare newspapers, the top eight core keywords were common: "patients," "death," "LST (life-sustaining treatments)," "hospice palliative care," "hospitals," "family," "opinion," and "withdrawal." There were also common subtopics shared by the general daily and healthcare newspapers: withdrawal of LST, hospice palliative care, National Bioethics Review Committee, and self-determination and proxy decision of patients and family. Additionally, the general daily newspapers included diverse social interest or events like well-dying, euthanasia, and the death of farmer Baek Nam-ki, whereas the healthcare newspapers discussed problems of the relevant laws, and insufficient infrastructure and low reimbursement for hospice-palliative care. Conclusion: The discourse that withdrawal of futile LST should be allowed according to the patient's will was consistent in the newspapers. Given that newspaper articles influence knowledge and attitudes of the public, RNs are recommended to participate actively in public communication on LST.

Hospitals under competitive environment are getting more interested in PR(public relations) as a means of marketing. A typical form of public relations for the hospital is publicity, and its principal instrument is the press release that provides the mass media with the raw material and background for a news story. The purpose of this paper is to examine and analyze the public relations articles associated with hospitals in the section of health care in major daily newspapers. Three major daily newspapers, Chosun, Joongang and Hankyoreh have been analyzed for a year from January 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998. All articles in the health care section are classified by content, size, press comments, and style. This study has found some perverse aspects of the public relations such as the preponderance of health articles on tertiary medical institutions, inappropriate publicity focused on certain medical treatments, doctors, and hospitals, and the positive press comments on the hospitals that are affiliated with the same corporate group as the newspaper.

This study was intended to help children to cultivate and develop a sound attitude toward food consumption and eating habits through the analysis of food and nutritional information in news articles and advertisements in three major daily children's newspapers in Korea: The Chosen Children's Daily Newspaper, The Hankook Children's Daily Newspaper, and The Donga Children's Daily Newspaper. The monitoring period was for twelve months, January to December 2003. Two hundred seventy-nine articles and three hundred thirty-five advertisements were analyzed. The results were as follows. 'Cooking and health' were the most frequent subject in food and nutrition articles. The articles' contents are evaluated positively in morality and explanation; but negatively in fairness, specialization, and objectiveness. The articles were insufficient in the explanation of professional terms, scientific bases, and practical measures for real life. It therefore seems that they were difficult for children to understand well. The most frequent themes in the advertisements were 'processed fats and sugars' such as chocolate, candies, and cookies. Frequently, they were exaggerated and accompanied by phrases promoting consumption. They did not provide sufficient well-grounded information, and focused too much on events or gifts to instigate consumer sentiment. In conclusion, the most serious problem was that most food and nutrition information in these children's newspapers was lacking in specialization. More specialized and objective information should be provided in order to enhance the educational value of children's newspapers and their utilization in school education programs. Continuous monitoring should be carried out to discover those news articles and advertisements that contain correct food and nutrition information.

The results of monitoring in the newspapers were summarized as follows; 1. The total percentage of the articles on health and food nutrition was 2.7% and the percentage of the advertisements on health, food and nutrition was 17.5% of total area of the newspaper. The ratio of the number of food and nutrition topic on the total number of health and food nutrition topic was 35.8% for the articles, was 62.9% for the advertisements. Among advertisements on food and nutrition, the percentage of advertisements on healthy foods was the highest (3,481 or 55.0%). 2. Contents of 340 articles(26.1%) were reported as suitable informations. Contents of 259 articles(19.9%) were reported as inaccurate informations on health, food and nutrition. In the analysis of advertisements, the number of advertisements without sufficient reliable sources was 2,488 cases(23.0%), and with exaggerated contents was 2,268 cases(21.0%). The articles and advertisements should be backed by scientific research or reliable sources and also the opinions of people with expertise in order to report accurate informations to the general public. In order to achieve these results, there should be continuing monitoring activity for the newspapers.

우리나라에 생활정보신문이 등장한지 10여년이 되어 모든 지역에서 유용한 지역생활정보 매체로 정착되었다. 생활정보신문은 그 유형에 따라 수요의 최소 인구규모를 바탕으로 그 배포지역을 형성하며, 그 배포지역은 부분적으로 시 .도 경계를 초월한 생활권을 중심으로 이루어지고 있다. 사업체가 입지한 지역에서 발간되는 생활 정보신문은 배부지역을 가지는데, 이것은 더 많은 소비자에게 정보 서비스를 제공하기 위한 보다 좁은 생활권의 영향에 의해 형성된 것이다.

이 연구는 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이전과 이후를 비교해 우리나라 원전 보도의 일반적 특성과 보도 프레임 차이를 확인하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 중앙 일간신문과 원전 소재 지역 일간신문을 선정해 이들 신문이 게재한 원전 관련 기사에 대한 내용 분석을 실시했다. 연구 결과, 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이후 우리나라 원전에 대한 보도는 크게 늘어난 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이전에 주로 경제적 측면이 강조됐던 우리나라 원전 보도는 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이후 사회적 차원이 강조되기 시작했다. 그리고 우리나라 원전 보도 기사가 주요 기사로 다뤄지는 계기가 됐다. 한편 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이후 우리나라 원전 보도의 프레임 역시 크게 변화했다. 당연하게도 환경 안전 프레임이 크게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 후쿠시마 원전 사고를 계기로 우리나라 원전의 안정성과 관련된 보도가 대폭 늘어났기 때문으로 보인다. 특히 원전 소재 지역의 일간신문에서 환경 안전 프레임은 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이전에도 다른 프레임과 비교해 가장 많은 29.3%였는데, 그 이후에는 77.6%로까지 증가한 것으로 확인됐다.

일간지 사설이 생산하는 종교담론은 종교의 '신앙 정체성' 담론이기 보다는 '사회관계성' 담론이라 할 수 있다. 사회관계성 담론으로서 개신교 담론에 대한 이해는 한국적 상황에서 진행되는 사회구조적 변동을 배경으로 새롭게 접근할 필요가 있다. 언론이 생산한 공공담론은 사회현실 자체를 사실적으로 반영하기보다는 시공간적 특수성을 전제로 일정한 가치와 잣대로 해석된 현실을 보여준다. 본 연구는 일간지가 생산한 개신교 담론을 구성주의 관점으로 접근한다. 특히 사회구조적 변동으로써 한국적 상황을 세계화(Globalization)론으로 바라본다. 본 연구의 목적은 일간지 사설의 내용분석과 담론분석을 통하여 21세기 한국 상황에서 사회와 개신교의 관계성을 성찰하는 것이다. 사회언론이 생산하는 한국 개신교 담론에 대한 분석적 고찰은 사회와의 건강한 소통을 위한 기초 작업이며 하나님 나라를 추구하는 기독교교육의 실천적 역할과도 연결된다. 최근 18년간(2004~2021) 일간지 사설이 생산한 한국 개신교 담론을 분석한 결과 한국사회와 한국 개신교의 상호충돌적 만남이 광범위하게 진행되고 있음을 발견하였다.
