A Democratic Approach to Religion News

Abstract

In this study’s second empirical chapter, I address the questions of to what extent the four dimensions of the democratic approach are employed and which of these dimensions are absent from British and Turkish newspapers. I provide and compare quantitative data and 87 qualitative examples about the meta-frames and frames of religion overall, Christianity, and Islam in British and Turkish newspapers. This combination of quantitative data and qualitative examples brings the richness and depth of the research findings to the fore. I highlight three key findings from the meta-frame analysis. First, British and Turkish newspapers demonstrated a contrasting attitude to the dominant and the minority religions. Second, in both countries, despite the contrasting framing of the minority religions, even the dominant religions had a disproportioned employment of the four meta-frames, or they did not receive recognition of the importance of faith, its values, and practices in everyday life for their followers. Third, the different patterns of religion coverage in the four meta-frames show the proposed democratic approach’s potential for recognising all views and values. I discuss and compare all the findings with previous research on religion in the news and journalism studies.

Notes

  1. 1.

    It is important to note that there can be about one-percent differences in the percentages about the overall employment of meta-frames between Table 6.1 and the tables that follow. The percentages in Table 6.1 are based on counts and in the other tables on responses. The reason is that there were news items that featured or equally focused on more than one religion or religious denomination, for which I ticked more than one category.

  2. 2.

    For the breakdowns of meta-frames in the coverage of religion by newspaper, week, and overall in both countries, see Appendix C, Tables 1 and 2.

  3. 3.

    See Appendix C, Table 3.

  4. 4.

    The other breakdowns of Christian denominations in Britain and Islamic branches in both countries did not reveal other notable patterns.

  5. 5.

    See Appendix C, Tables 4, 5, 6, and 7.

  6. 6.

    See Appendix C, Tables 8 and 9.

  7. 7.

    See Appendix C, Table 2.

  8. 8.

    For the crosstab of Christianity and Islam by the frames in the political meta-frame in British newspapers—overall, see Appendix C, Tables 10 and 11.

  9. 9.

    See Appendix C, Table 12.

  10. 10.

    See Appendix C, Table 13.

  11. 11.

    The crosstabs of meta-frames by the relevance and length of news items do not show any significant patterns.

  12. 12.

    See Appendix C, Tables 14 and 15.

  13. 13.

    See Appendix C, Table 16.

  14. 14.

    See Appendix C, Table 17.
