In President Trump and the News Media: Moral Foundations, Framing,
and the Nature of Press Bias in America, political communication
researcher Jim A. Kuypers takes readers on a rhetorical framing
tour de force, this time incorporating elements of Moral
Foundations Theory to investigate the ideological underpinnings of
press reports. Using a rhetorical version of framing analysis,
Kuypers analyzes four major speeches by President Trump and
compares them with the reporting on those speeches by the
mainstream news media. The moral foundations of both Trump and the
news media are examined to assess their respective
moral/ideological underpinnings. The results turn framing theory on
its head by demonstrating how frames do not give rise to moral
assessments as previously thought, but rather the presence of moral
foundations provide moral substance to frames as they are developed
and found throughout news coverage. The results reveal how
journalists inject bias consciously and unconsciously into hard
news stories, and that their moral foundations act to privilege
liberal concerns and denigrate conservative concerns. Kuypers
conveys how news media framing acted to treat President Trump not
as a source of news, but as a political opponent while at the same
time helping the political opposition of the President. By
evaluating journalistic practices through the lens of their own
published ethical standards, Kuypers argues that contemporary
journalistic practices are damaging the American Republic and makes
the case for immediate incorporation of viewpoint diversity within
news organizations. Scholars of communications, journalism, and
political science will find this book particularly interesting.
