Citation

Global Strategy Group. (n.d.). Innocent until proven guilty?


This study analyzes national and local news coverage of ten criminal cases. The authors find that the use of imagery, language, framing, and background differs significantly between coverage of cases with Black versus white defendants. The authors also recommend changes journalists can make to reduce racial bias in their reporting.
