Tiivistelmä: | In the U.K., the Leicester Mercury has been identified as a model newspaper by the British government due to its centrality in communicating positive representations (here as: reprs.) of ethnic minorities in the city, and due to its role played in avoiding the rioting experienced by British cities with large ethnic minority populations. However, critical discourse and social actor analyses reveal that reprs. largely conceal the real structural reasons for the absence of rioting, instead addressing multiculturalism and antiracism through discourses of abstracted 'talking' and 'sharing' a 'talking cure'. This is more in harmony with the ideology of an advertiser-driven commercial newspaper etc. |
