网络议程设置中的镜像与折变:美法两国“黑命攸关”运动的媒体议程与公众议程

Duplication or Refraction in Network Agenda Setting: A Comparative Study of American and French Media Reporting and Public Opinion on “Black Lives Matter”

在"弗洛伊德之死"事件后,"黑命攸关"(Black Lives Matter)运动迅速从美国席卷世界。由于该事件涉及种族、人权、社会公正等诸多层次,它从美国向外扩散时不是单纯的镜像复制。本研究选取美国《华尔街日报》和法国《费加罗报》关于此次运动的报道以及脸书评论作为研究对象,使用社会网络分析法考察媒体对民众与不同媒体间的议程设置效果,发现两国媒体对公众都存在网络议程设置效果,但不同议程会发生折变;美国媒体对法国媒体的议程设置效果强于两国媒体对公众的议程设置效果。本研究对理解社交媒体时代的跨国社会运动与议程设置效果等命题具有一定的启发意义。

After the death of George Floyd, the "Black Lives Matter"(BLM) movement quickly spread from the United States to the rest of the world. As the BLM involved race, human rights, social justice, and many other aspects, its expansion from the US was not a mere duplication but a refraction. Therefore, this study selects reports on the BLM from the Wall Street Journal and Le Figaro and the relevant Facebook comments, using social network analysis to examine the network agenda-setting effect of media on the public and US media on French media. The study finds that network agenda setting effects of media on the public exist in both countries, with some adjustments for different agendas;the network agenda setting effect of US media on French media is stronger than the effect of media on the public in either country. The study can help to understand transnational social movements and agenda setting effects in the era of social media.
