Framing as defined by Robert Entman is “to frame a communicating text or message is to promote certain facets of a ‘perceived reality’ and make them more salient in such a way that endorses a specific problem definition, casual interpretation, moral evaluation, and/or a treatment recommendation (Cissel 68).” Framing is an extension of agenda-setting, which is when the media tells us what to think about (Sparks 228).

“Denise Brown testified that her sister was an abused wife. In February 1995, she said Simpson grabbed Nicole 's crotch one night in a bar in full view of friends and strangers and proclaimed, in part, "This is mine." Brown

Nicole Brown Simpson is the ex-wife of the famous football star Orenthal James “O.J.” Simpson.

The scene is extremely gruesome and from pictures that are shown was a crime completely out of rage no if and or buts about it.

In this film, there were two different groups of people who were against each other, they were not friends, they were enemies. The film shows us that it is not all make believe that some places are scared of other places just because the other place has better weapons, more power or even more people. The Russians were the communist, and the Americans were afraid that Russian was going to be dropping bombs on them. The Americans went ahead and made a plan on how they were going to drop the bombs on Russia. They made plans on what to do and how to do it because they were terrified that Russia was going to drop bombs on them. There were equalities and inequalities in this movie. The Russians were the inequalities in the film because they did not have any advantages. The Americans were the equalities because they had more gear and were more aware of what was going on, they were prepared a lot better then Russia, also. The Americans thought that they were being attacked so they started to go and attack Russia, Russia had no clue what was going on, they got frightened because they were afraid of the American weapons.

At 12:10 a.m. on June 13, 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were found murdered outside of Nicole 's Bundy Drive condominium in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles. Brown had been stabbed multiple times in the head and neck, and had defensive wounds on her hands. Through

This article is one based on President Obama Campaigning for Democratic Nominee, Hillary Clinton. It is urging the public to think about all that can be undone if we do not chose wisely in this upcoming election. This article sets out a combination of Agenda setting theory (telling the audience what to think about), and framing theory (telling the audience how to think about it). It is easy to see the presence of Agenda setting theory in the proposal of all the good that can be repealed. It points out the good that has come with the passing obama care. How 20 million previously uninsured people, now are insured. Which personally I think is great. But it fails to acknowledge the strain that same bill has put on our economy. Therefore telling

Framing is a communication theory that simply put, is the media or people in general deciding what other people think about. The framing theory is similar to the agenda-setting theory, but it focuses more at the particular issues and not a specific topic. When the media puts certain heightened attention on one event or topic over another and places theses topics in our field of view it is almost like they are deciding what the public should think and that is the foundation of this theory.

Agenda-setting: This is the very first step that looks up into the public controversial issues, which is in essence to draw attention from policymakers in the perspective of “every description of a situation is a portrayal from only one of many points of view” (Kraft & Furlong, 2013, pg. 211). Most importantly, an appropriate approach is always in attempt to be used as the “problem stream” (Lecture Note, Week 2, Class 2).

Agenda setting is the most critical phase of the policy cycle and has a decisive impact on the entire subsequent policy and its outcomes. Agenda setting, Birkland suggests (1997, p.11), is “the result of a society acting through political and social institutions to define the meanings of problems and the range of acceptable solutions”. In other words, agenda-setting as a term was introduced by Cobb and Elder (1971) who “are concerned with how issues are created and why some controversies or incipient issues come to command the attention and concern of decision makers, while others fail” (p. 905). The analytical foundation of agenda-setting can be traced back to psychological theories of priming in work on intellectual transforming of semantic information. ,

The agenda setting theory is one of those terms that many people have heard about, but don’t exactly know what it means. So what exactly is the agenda theory, and how did it originate? Back in 1968, Dr. Max McCombs and Dr. Donald Shaw did a study on the 1968 president election of the Unites States. They found a correlation between issues voters believed were important and issues reported prominently in the media. The study from Dr. Max McCombs and Dr. Donald Shaw was eventually published in 1972. It was called “The Agenda-Setting Function of Mass Media’’ and in the introduction they described what the theory consists of: “In choosing and displaying news, editors, newsroom staff, and broadcasters play an important part in shaping political reality. Readers learn not only about a given issue, but also how much importance to attach to that issue from the amount of information in a news story and its position. In reflecting what candidates are saying during a campaign, the mass media may well determine the important issues—that is, the media may set the

The media has been used, over the past years, to pass on information to the general public, as well as to educate the public about developmental issues. The agenda setting theory of mass media postulates that media gives the people what to think about, and influences how they think about it. One of the phenomenal issues that has been greatly affected by media is the Susan G. Komen Foundation and Planned Parenthood controversy.
