Hunnicutt, Robert Ward. An Analysis of Magazine News
and Editorial Coverage of the 1973 Chilean Military Coup.
Master of Arts (Journalism), August, 1976, 45 pp., 5 tables,
6 illustrations, bibliography, 60 titles.
The study focused on the positive or negative direction
shown in 57 articles from ten English-language magazines
covering the 1973 military coup in Chile, September 1 to
December 31, 1973, inclusive. Magazines chosen were from
the fields of news, religion, opinion, and business.
Direction was determined by comparing individual
thought units within articles against a category table
comprising mutually exclusive pairs of thought units.
Directional value of each article was determined by positive
and negative ratios.
Results showed a wide variation in scores, with news
magazines adhering most closely to the objective ideal.
Recommendations for further study included long-term
study of single magazines or classes of magazines for
direction, and an expanded mathematical analysis.
