The framing of Iraq: How newspapers rely on wire services for fact and frameire services for fact and frame
Traditional wire service studies have focused on how international events are judged as newsworthy in newsrooms reluctant to devote space to overseas stories. Studies of framing in reports of the same events usually rely on articles by different journalists from different news groups. During the recent Iraq war, however, considerable space was allocated to an overseas event and Australian newspapers relied on articles transmitted by the same wires. Thus the war provides the opportunity not only to look at how Australian newspapers use wire copy but how that copy is framed. This thesis concentrates on instances where wire copy was used by different newspapers and how the articles are framed. It contrasts reliance on wire services by The Australian and The West Australian in the first three weeks of the war, looks at how Australian papers used individual wire articles and discusses framing of the war in The West Australian
A grammar of ResĂgaro
The thesis gives a description within the framework of tagmemic theory of Resigaro, a South American Indian language
of the Huitoto group, spoken in the region between the Amazon and the Putumayo, in north-eastern Peru.
The Introduction reviews critically previous work on the language, and sets out modifications in tagmemic theory which
it is claimed avoid circularity and repetition and improve the
description. Principal among these is a strict separation of
the three modes of Contrast, Variation and Distribution, and the use of multiplication of derive structures.
Part I of the thesis describes the first two levels of the
Phonological Hierarchy - Phoneme level and Syllable level.
Part II describes the grammatical hierarchy, in which the following levels are set up:
Root
Stem
Word
(Group)
(Piece)
Phrase
Clause
Sentence
(Group and Piece are sub-levels affecting only the Verb class.) Each Level is described in a separate chapter, starting at the lowest level (Root). Each class (Verb, Noun, Pronoun, etc.) is described in turn at each level at which it has elements. At Phrase level, Phrases are described as being either Endocentric or Axis-Relator. Endocentric Phrases (Verb, Noun, and Numeral) are described first. At Clause level, the description of Clause structure is preceded by a description of Clause-level tagmemes - first the nuclear, and then the peripheral tagmemes. It is indicated that this simplifies the presentation of Clause structure. Under Clause structure, the Declarative clause is described first, and other Clause classes are derived from this, viz.: Interrogative, Imperative, Nominalized and Relativized. The description of the Contrast and Variation modes of Sentence level is followed by an analysis of the first section of a text.
Appendix I presents a lexicon of Resigaro in two parts: Part I is Resigaro-Spanish-English, and Part II is Spanish-Resigaro.
Appendix II presents a 376-word four-language comparative word list for Resigaro, Bora, Ocaina and Huitoto Muinan
