| dc.description.notes | Examines the representation of domestic violence by the Australian media, specifically looking at newspapers. Focuses on the power the press wields in educating and bringing knowledge to the population and their ability to shape public discourse and opinion. Suggests that the press does not fully utilise its educational potential, but in fact feeds into myths and stereotypes to shape and sensationalise stories. Gives examples of newspapers reinforcing stereotypes of domestic violence, through their use of language, emphasis and blatant absence of the all the facts. Argues that the press as a social resource should utilise it ability to reach into a multitude of lives and promote a general understanding about domestic violence, issues of tolerance, prejudice and social justice. Concludes that the media rarely generate positive outcomes for domestic violence, rather reinforce the very stereotypes that help perpetuate the problem. | en |
