“…The world covered in the press, he found, was not proportionally commensurate with either the population or geographic size of specific countries. 3 Most subsequent research described differences in news coverage across countries or the image of a certain country or region in another country's media (e.g., Hicks & Gordon, 1974). Commenting on this research trend, Rosengren (1977) called for a more explanatory approach to advance the building of international communication theory.…”

This study investigates the influence of systemic determinants on international news coverage in 38 countries. Systemic factors include traits of nations, magnitude of interaction and relatedness between nations, and logistics of news gathering.Multiple regression is implemented to assess 9 systemic determinants in each individual country. Findings indicate that the U.S. was the most covered country in the world. In spite of some variation, trade volume and presence of international news agencies were found to be the 2 primary predictors of the amount of news coverage. The study concludes that the prediction framework of international news coverage has probably altered in the post-Cold War epoch and, therefore, that the relevant problems need to be revisited.

“…But other studies found no consistent relationship between geographical distance and international news flow (e.g. Hicks and Gordon, 1974;Rosengren, 1977), suggesting that the coverage a country receives is based on multiple and more complex antecedents. Rosengren (1970) found that population was one of the most significant factors influencing international news flow.…”

Do nations require an adversary? US media coverage of China, as reflected in national news magazines, was analyzed before and after the breakup of the Soviet Union to determine how media portrayed this global power change. China received significantly more coverage after the Soviet Union breakup, and the post-breakup themes and frames about China were significantly different and more negative. This study of coverage related to global power shifts suggests that adversarial political relationships are mirrored in a nation's domestic media and may be necessary for national unity.Keywords / breakup of the Soviet Union / China / China frame / cultural affinity / economic/trade factors / international news hole / media coverage / national interest / national news magazines / political relations / world system theory
