“…Media texts act as cultural resources upon which consumers draw when they attempt to make sense of the world and consumption practices (e.g., Fitchett & Caruana, 2015; Humphreys, 2010a, 2010b; Humphreys & LaTour, 2013). The media also has a great deal of agenda setting power in establishing an issue to the public consciousness and in legitimating the importance of societal issues (e.g., Peters & Broersma, 2016). Thus, the media has also been shown to direct public policy (Strömberg, 2001).…”

As extant literature on social media has generally focused on investigating the psychological factors, which makes a person more susceptible to social media addiction, it has not yet investigated how social media addiction is portrayed by the media. However, the media framing of addictions can have considerable implications for consumers, as extant literature has shown them to use media texts as cultural resources through which they attempt to understand and justify their behaviour. The media can also have more indirect effects by, for instance, driving stigmatization or public policy initiatives. Thus, this study compares the media framing of social media addiction in the United Kingdom and the United States through longitudinal, mixed‐methods frame analysis. It then extends the extant literature by showing how social media addiction has been framed in both the United Kingdom and United States. It shows that concern regarding the issue has increased in both countries. In addition, the findings show that while previously social media addiction has been seen as an individual, psychological problem, concerns about the addictiveness and, thereby, about the lacking public policy measures have also increased in both countries. Implications for individual consumers, public policy and managers are considered.

“…The role of citizen journalists has led some to divide gatekeepers into primary and secondary gatekeepers. 14 Primary gatekeepers are those who, by filtering information and publishing, decide what news is. Traditional and professional media are primary gatekeepers.…”

Twitter. What some view as just a social media site to see and share ratings with dogs; politicians and journalists are now finding it a requirement of their daily jobs. Politicians are using Twitter in an attempt to circumvent the gatekeeping that media has performed for generations while journalists are trying to keep up and verify all the news sent through it. No one has relied more on Twitter than President Donald J. Trump who uses his account to not only get around the gatekeeping function of the press, but to change the news cycle all together.

“…This is the basic question the article aims to answer through examining how different actors in the Scandinavian news media legitimised or rejected border control during the 'refugee crisis of 2015' and the contexts in which border control was discussed. Although challenged by constant change, the traditional news media continue to have a great influence on public perceptions of world events (Peters & Broersma 2017). It is therefore a highly pertinent place to study how border control was legitimised.…”

Compassionate Border Securitisation? Border Control in the Scandinavian News Media during the ‘Refugee Crisis’

Although Scandinavian countries are similar in many respects and have maintained common policies in several areas, they differ in their immigration policies. Swedish immigration policies have tended to be liberal, Denmark's strict, and Norway's somewhere in between. In 2015, however, all Scandina vian countries implemented border controls because of unexpectedly high migration.This article aims to explore how border control is legitimised and portrayed in Scandinavian news media through the three main discourses: sustainability, humanitarianism and defence against threat. The article argues that political actors use notions of welfare state sustainability and solidarity to justify border control. As the system is allegedly collapsing, securitisation of the border becomes an overarching premise for sustaining international obligations such as providing shelter for refugees. Border control is thus portrayed as compassionate, rather than exclusionary, policy.
