A related and perhaps more useful theory deals with framing. It focuses on the presentation of the story and organizes discourse about the topic. Framing explains how the media provide a perspective or frame of reference that influences public discourse on a topic. How do the news media frame a story? Is there an inherent “good guy” in the story? Whose side of the story gets top billing? Which version becomes the standard against which other points of view are measured?
Framing theory was developed by Erving Goffman (1974) and applied to communication studies by Dietram Scheufele (1999). Framing provides a rhetorical context for the text, involving the use of metaphor, storytelling, jargon, word choice and other narrative elements.
For example, a report on repeat drunk driving might be framed in various ways: criminal recidi vism, police incompetence, judicial lenience or the power of addiction. If agenda setting tells audiences what to think about, framing theory suggests that the media influence how the audience thinks about an issue.
