2012 - 2015
Applicant : Marcel Burger (Unil) , Daniel Perrin (ZHAW) , Andrea Rocci (Usi)
Other partners : Margherita Luciani (Usi), Marta Zampa (Usi, ZHAW)
The present Research Module (RM) examines the role of argumentation practices - i.e. logical reasoning activities in social interaction - during the process of producing news and in the news text itself. The research compares different media (radio-television and print journalism) in the German, French and Italian regions of Switzerland. The media organizations considered are two units of the public service broadcaster SRG (Schweizer Fernsehen and Télévision Suisse Romande) and the main Italian language newspaper published in Ticino, Il Corriere del Ticino (CdT), which is owned by a non-profit private foundation.
