  • Social issues are important factors that decide government policy and newspapers are critical channels that reflect them. Analysing news articles can contribute to understanding social issues, but it is very difficult to analyse the unstructured large volumes of news data manually. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the different views among stakeholders of a specific social issue by using text analysis, word cloud analysis and associative analysis methods, which systematically transform unstructured news data into structured one. We analyzed a total of 115 news articles and a total of 6,772 comments, collected from the selected newspapers (Chosun-Il-bo, Joongang-Il-bo, Donga-Il-bo, Maeil Newspaper, Busan-Il-bo) for two weeks. We found that there are significant differences in tone between newspapers. While nation-wide daily newspapers focus on political relations with local areas, local daily newspapers tend to write articles to represent local governments' interests.

  • This study investigated how Korean media covered Japan's position on her past history issues proposed by Abe' Shinzo's cabinet. The researchers adopted Entman's analytical tools for frame analysis and the concept of "frame changing" proposed by Chi and McCombs. The analysis rendered several propositions. First of all, the Korean media's coverage on Japan's past history issues focused heavily on the current conflict among two nations rather than constructing a futuristic viewpoint based on a thorough discussion on the historical background of the topic. In addition, it emphasized that the conflict should be resolved by political negotiations between the two governments. Secondly, the news coverages depicted "comfort women" issues as the prime element of the conflict, describing Abe's cabinet as the major inducer of the conflict. Ideological and political divisions among Korean media did not significantly influence on how they frame Japan's past history issues. In general, Korean media took the stance of ethnocentric "patriotic journalism," advocating Korean government's position and covering the emotional reactions from Korean public instead of providing through and through objective news coverage on Japan's past history issues.

Texts chosen in this thesis are 120 programs of KBS2TV 'News Time' which had been on air from July to December in 2005. Shot size, camerawork, shot duration and camera angle of the images were analysed, which had been extracted through the processes of thematic classification. The results of the analysis of thematic classification shows us that videojournalist covered mainly social, economic and cultural news items, almost completely alienated in the fields of hard news as political and health-scientific news items which were very sensitive and influential on the life of the entire people of the nation. The results of the analysis on the characteristics of image expression reveals that videojournalist used one-shot more often than the camera reporter, showing us videojournalist's preference of close news gathering, and videojournalist used following and zooming much more often than camera reporter, showing us videojoumalist's preference of mobile and dynamic cameraworks, and videojournalist used low angles more often than camera reporter, also showing us videojoumalist's preference of candid camera style news gathering.
