“…(van Zoonen 1992, 460). Reporters are overworked and underpaid in their efforts to deliver late breaking news (Magno 1996). Thus, a movement representative who wishes to gain coverage must not only be available for comment and questioning at the reporter's convenience but also must make efforts to form bonds with reporters.…”

Newspaper coverage of the political movement Deaf President Now (DPN) was evaluated for evidence of positive or negative framing in photographic and written content. This research found that DPN enjoyed four exclusively positive frames in the media. The results of this study suggest that the coverage was due to several factors: the intended availability of protest sources, a lack of expedience on the part of elite sources, the organization of protest events, assimilation of elites within the movement, frame extension of the movement's causes, sponsorship from corporations, liaisons with journalists, the narrow focus of the movement, and the ideological assumptions of disability in society. This article suggests that only through the serendipitous conjunction of all the above-mentioned traits was DPN able to achieve its goals. Furthermore, because of these exceptional qualities, it was suggested that the positive media frames of DPN did not contradict any previous claims of oppressive hegemonic structures within political media coverage.

“…The ecological approaches resulted in a multiplication of environmental political movements and the impact of this perspective became evident in the mass media. In the past two decades, environmental crises have narrowed the focus of media and public opinion to dramatic problems of the physical natural environment or to single components of the environment, overlooking the ecological perspective of the environment as a whole (Alwi Dahlan 1994;Magno 1996). Parlour (2008) argues that the media's portrayal of environmental issues is structured by dominant powerholding groups in society, with the consequence that media effectively function to maintain and reinforce the status quo to the advantage of those dominant groups.…”

The article presents the results of an exploratory-qualitative study about children´s conceptions of ecology in relation to media messages. The objective of the study has been to identify the role of ecologism and environmental campaigns on ecology conceptions of 105 6th grade children, age 10-12, from an educational institution in Bogotá, Colombia. A multi-method study, with an open-ended questionnaire and the use of drawings, has been conducted to explore students' conceptions about ecology and its role; the concept of ecosystem and systemic thinking; and the identification of the sources of information. A content analysis, with theoretical categories based on the theory of social representation, has been applied. Results indicate that participants often relate ecology to recycling, separation of solid residues, and the care and conservation of the environment. Children do not refer to ecology as scientific theory probably because of the general discourse circulating in the media. The authors suggest that results have strong implications for biology education, especially about the ecology process, requiring the teacher's intervention to expand the children´s conceptual profile and scientific knowledge.
