21세기 들어 아시아가 빠르게 발전하고 있다. 한국과 아시아 국가 사이에 인적, 물적 교류도 크게 늘고, 한국이 다문화사회로 접어들면서 아시아에 대한 우리 국민들의 올바른 이해가 더욱 중요해졌다. 이를 위해서는 한국신문의 아시아에 대한 보도양상이 중요하다는 문제의식에서 조선일보, 동아일보, 한겨레신문, 경향신문 등 4개 신문이 2011년에 보도한 1786개의 국제뉴스 내용을 분석해서 아시아와 서구에 대한 보도양상의 차이와 이유를 알아봤다. 보도량에서는 아시아(45.7%)보다 서구(54.3%)뉴스가 많았다. 아시아 뉴스에서는 부정적인 뉴스가 가장 많았으나, 서구 뉴스에서는 부정적인 뉴스가 가장 적고 중립적 또는 긍정적인 뉴스가 가장 많아 한국신문은 아시아보다 서구에 대해 긍정적인 보도태도를 보였다. 국제뉴스를 도덕 정의, 정치, 경제 과학, 사회, 외교 국방, 인간적 흥미, 인물 등 7개의 주제로 분류했다. 주제별 보도량을 보면 아시아에 대해서는 외교 국방, 도덕 정의, 정치 등 경성기사를 많이 보도했다. 서구에 대해서는 경성기사 이외에 인간적 흥미, 인물 등 연성기사도 많이 보도해 아시아보다는 다양한 뉴스를 전달했다. 경성기사에서는 부정적인 태도가 가장 많았고, 연성기사에서는 긍정 또는 중립적인 태도가 가장 많았다. 그 결과 한국신문의 국제뉴스는 아시아에 대해 부정적이고, 서구에 대해 긍정적인 보도태도를 나타내게 됐다. 미디어, 정부, 민간조직, 개인, 자료 등 5개의 핵심 정보원 가운데 미디어만이 서구와 아시아에 대한 보도태도의 차이에 영향을 주고 있었다. 아시아 미디어 정보원은 서구 미디어보다 아시아에 대해 긍정적인 보도를 많이 했다. 서구 미디어 정보원은 아시아에 대해서는 부정적, 서구에 대해서는 중립적인 보도를 많이 했다. 그런데 한국신문은 동아시아를 제외한 지역의 뉴스에서는 전적으로 서구미디어를 핵심 정보원으로 활용했다. 이에 따라 한국신문의 국제뉴스는 서구중심적이 되고, 아시아에 더 부정적인 보도를 많이 하게 되었다. 한국신문의 서구와 아시아에 대한 보도양상은 많이 보도한 주제와 외국 미디어 정보원 의존 형태에 따라 달라졌다. 한국신문은 특파원 등을 활용한 직접 취재, 인터넷을 이용한 아시아 매체활용 확대 등으로 아시아에 대해 다양한 뉴스를 전달해야 한다는 개선방안을 제시했다.

In the current analysis, we examine news coverage data widely used in media studies. News coverage data is usually time series data to capture the volume or the tone of the news media's coverage of a topic. We first describe the distributional properties of autoregressive conditionally heteroscadestic(ARCH) effects and compare two major American newspaper's coverage of U.S.-North Korea relations. Subsequently, we propose a change point detection model and apply it to the detection of major change points in the tone of American newspaper coverage of U.S.-North Korea relations.

본 연구는 소셜 미디어 정치 뉴스의 논조와 프레임 유형 및 특성을 분석한 것이다. 소셜 미디어 뉴스는 트위터나 페이스북 등 SNS를 기반으로 자유롭게 정보를 공유하고 누구나 기사를 작성하고 편집할 수 있는 특성으로 인해 기존 미디어가 따라올 수 없을 만큼 의견의 다양성을 실현시키고 있다. 이에 구체적으로 소셜 미디어 뉴스가 어떻게 기존 미디어와 차별적으로 뉴스를 형성하고 있는지, 어떠한 뉴스 프레임으로 여론을 형성하고 있는지 살펴보고자 국내 소셜 뉴스매체인 '위키트리'를 대상으로 '대통령선거' 키워드 검색을 통해 총 419건의 기사를 추출한 후 내용분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 소셜 미디어 정치 뉴스의 논조와 프레임 유형은 보도인물, 게재유형, 정보원, 주제범주, 현 정권에 대한 태도에 따라 유의미한 차이를 보였는데 심층성이 부족하고 연성화가 뚜렷해져 기존 미디어가 가지는 정치 뉴스의 한계를 여전히 벗어나지 못하고 있는 것으로 해석된다. 소셜 미디어 정치 뉴스의 논조는 개연적, 구체적이기 보다 당위적, 추상적인 것으로 나타났고 주로 감성, 전략, 일화 중심의 프레임을 사용하고 있는 것으로 나타났기 때문이다.

In reading news stories online, people are exposed to others' comments to a news story. In spite of popularity of comments to a news story online, the understanding of why and who posts a comment is still lacking. To complement scarcity and have a better understanding of comment-posting online, this study examined psychological factors which affect the likelihood of posting a comment to a news story online. In particular, three variables were considered: The first variable was communication efficacy, that is, an individual's belief about communication practices and systems, under the supposition that the people who have greater levels of communication efficacy are more likely to post a comment. The second variable was perception of public opinion, to test that when and if people judge their position of the issue as favored by the majority, they tend to post a comment. And finally, the tone of existing comments was included, to test if the tone of comments affects the willingness to post a comment. The results showed that firstly, people at a high level of communication efficacy are more likely to post a comment compared to people at the low level of communication efficacy. Secondly, the perception of public opinion partly influenced the willingness to post a comment. Especially, when people believe communication systems contribute to develop society and also when judged that their opinion is the majority's opinion, they are more likely to post a comment. Finally, the tone of the comments influenced the willingness to post a comment only on the condition that people are confident of the communication practice and are exposed to emotional comments.

With many consumers being exposed to news via social media platforms, news organizations are challenged to attract visitors and generate revenue during visits to their websites. They therefore need detailed information on how to write articles and headlines to increase visitors' engagement with the content to drive advertising revenues. For those news organizations whose business model depends mainly on advertisements, rather than subscriptions, it is particularly crucial to understand what makes the website attractive to their visitors, what drives users to stay on the website, and what factors affect a user's exit decision. The current research examines individual news consumers' choices to find patterns of increase or decrease in user engagement relative to a variety of topics, as well as to the mood or tone of the content. Using clickstream data from a major news organization, the authors develop a user-level dynamic model of clickstream behavior that takes into account the content of both headlines and stories that visitors read. The authors find that readers appear to exhibit state dependence in the tone of the articles that they read. They also show how the topics expressed in headlines can affect the amount of content readers consume when visiting the news organization to a much larger degree than the topics expressed in the content of the article. Online publishers can make use of such findings to present visitors with content that is likely to maintain and/or increase their engagement and consequently drive advertising revenue.

Purpose - This paper examines how the consumer animosity of partner country influences the purchase of foreign products. We analyzed news sentiment to determine whether Chinese consumer's animosity affect the purchase of the products made in Korea around the time when the U.S. Terminal High Altitude Area Defense missile system was deployed in South Korea. Design/methodology - To measure the tone of Chinese consumer animosity more carefully, we utilized a text mining technique of the Chinese language to read the public's opinion. Using Chinese news paper's editorials of 2015.1-2018.10, we analyzed the sentiment toward Korea and regressed it with Korean export to China. Findings - Empirical results report that Chinese consumers tended to reduce their purchase of consumer goods from Korea when the animosity increased, that is, the sentiments of Chinese news editorials were negative. In contrast, the animosity did not affect the purchase of Korean intermediates or raw materials. We further analyzed the effect by dividing the animosity into three categories; politics, economics, and culture. Among these groups, political news exhibits a unique effect on Chinese purchase on consumer goods from Korea. Originality/value - Existing literature on animosity models has measured the animosity by collecting the consumers' opinions through survey at a given time point, whereas it is measured by analyzing the tone of the press release by sentiment analysis during the time period around the event occurrence in this study.

Objective : The aims of this study are to investigate the trend of internet journalism about the toxicity and safety of the herbal medicine, and to suggest the regulatory solution of the issue. Method : In this study, we had searched the internet news article published from 2001 to 2011 in the five major portal sites-NAVER, DAUM, Nate, Google Korean, and Yahoo Korean. The search terms were 'herbal medicine', 'adverse event', 'toxicity'. If the articles described the same event in the same form and tone, the articles were considered overlapping. The overlapped articles were excluded. The articles were categorized by the form and tone. The form categories were straight news, interpretative story, editorial, interview, and the tone categories are the positive, the negative, and the neutral. The regulations were searched about the negative issue. Result : Total 56 articles were reviewed. There were 19 positive articles, 29 negative articles, 8 neutral articles. Most negative issues have the proper regulations, but insufficient measures for the adverse event reporting system. Conclusion : The herbal medicine specified adverse event reporting system is essential.

뉴스 미디어는 대통령 후보들의 공약을 보도하면서 주관적 논평을 하며, 이는 정치 커뮤니케이션에서 중요한 의미를 가진다. 본 연구의 목적은 언론의 대통령 후보 공약에 대한 보도 특성과 신문 간 차이를 살펴보고 그 함의를 논의하는 것이다. 보수적 신문과 진보적 신문, 즉 조선일보와 경향신문에 보도된 2주간의 뉴스 기사를 표집하여, 체계화된 코딩유목에 따라 내용분석을 실시하였다. 수집된 기사에 대해 빈도분석과 신문 간 보도 논조의 차이를 검증하기 위해 교차분석을 수행하였고, 분석도구로는 SPSS 통계패키지를 이용하였다. 분석 결과, 기사 제목에서의 논조 차이는 발견되지 않았으나, 기사의 내용적 차원에서는 신문 간 논조 차이가 통계적으로 유의미하게 나타나 연구가설이 검증되었다. 이 같은 연구결과는 보수와 진보적 성격의 신문간 보도 차이로 인한 언론의 프레이밍 효과를 시사한다. 후속 연구로 지난 선거 후보들의 공약 보도와의 비교, 기사 논조의 차이에 대한 언어 사용의 심층적 분석을 위한 네트워크분석, 공약의 신문보도와 방송보도의 비교분석이 제안된다.

Objectives: Cancer diagnoses have a tremendous impact on individuals and communities, drawing intense public concern. The objective of the current research was to examine news coverage and content related to cancer-related issues in Korean newspapers. Methods: Primarily using the database system of the Korea Press Foundation, we conducted a content analysis of 2806 articles from 9 Korean daily newspapers during a recent 3-year period from 2015 to 2017. Thematic categories, the types of articles, attitudes and tone, and the number of sources in each article were coded and classified. Results: Many news articles dealt with a diverse range of themes related to cancer, including general healthcare information, the latest research and development, specific medical institutions and personnel, and technology and products, which jointly accounted for 74.8% of all articles. Those thematic categories differed markedly in terms of article type, tone, and the number of cited sources. News articles provided extensive information about healthcare resources, and many articles seemed to contain advertising content. However, the content related to complex social issues such as National Health Insurance did not include enough information for the reader to contextualize the issues properly or present the issues systematically. Conclusions: It can be assumed that the media exert differential influence on individuals through news coverage. Within the present reporting framework, the availability and usefulness of information are likely to depend solely on individuals' capabilities, such as financial and health literacy; this dependency has a negative impact on knowledge gaps and health inequities.

Objectives: This study investigated how Korean daily newspapers frame the present government's health insurance coverage expansion policy, Moon Jae-in Care. Methods: A contents analysis was conducted to construct news frames represented in the four Korean daily newspapers' editorials and columns on Moon Jae-in Care during from April 2017 to April 2018. News text was classified into three different layers of frames: expressive element, narrative structure, and implied values. Results: The analysis revealed that the frequency of narrative frames was as follows: health system improvement (20.8%), public burden (14.6%), opposition by doctors (14.6%), and populism (12.5%). The financial sustainability accounted for 41.7% of the value frame, followed by procedural legitimation (18.8%), and coverage expansion (16.7%). The results also revealed that reported frames were different among newspapers: Chosun Ilbo tended to report in a negative tone, while Hankyoreh shinmun and Kyunghyang shinmun used a positive tone. Conclusions: This finding suggests that there are salient framings in reports on Moon Jae-in Care. Based on the results, the government needs to present a detailed financing plan on Moon Jae-in Care in detail. I discussed another implication of media frames results.
