Media coverage of climate change has attracted much scholarly
attention because the extent of such coverage has an agenda-setting
effect and because the ways in which the coverage is framed can
influence public perception of and engagement with the issue.
However, certain gaps in our understanding of the processes whereby
such coverage is produced remain. The competition among strategic
actors to influence media framing strategies is poorly understood,
and the perspectives of journalists and editors are largely absent
from literature. With a view to advancing our understanding of the
"frame competition" around climate change and to presenting the
perspectives of journalists regarding climate change as a
journalistic topic, this book presents an in-depth case history of
media coverage of climate change in Ireland. First, the extent of
media attention for climate change is established, and the way in
which such coverage is framed is also examined. Through a series of
interviews, including rare and privileged access to government
ministers, their media advisors, and journalists and editors, the
book uncovers the contest to establish a dominant framing. The main
objective of this book is to advance our understanding of the
contest to establish the dominant framing of climate change in the
media discourse. Although focussed on Ireland, its conclusions are
of value to those seeking to better understand the dynamics of
media coverage of climate change in other contexts. This book will
be of great interest to students and scholars of climate change,
environmental policy, media and communication studies, and Irish
politics.
