- This is the first cross-national comparison of poverty coverage, the first to consider the impact of journalism’s digital turn on poverty reporting and the first to make connections between these changing practices and their wider neoliberal contexts. The research, which spans four years, draws on a frame analysis of more than 1100 articles and 52 interviews (journalists, politicians and activists) to detail how the increasing ‘speed’ of contemporary digital journalism in combination with dominant neoliberal discourses limit poverty coverage which in turn limits opportunities for mobilization and political responses to poverty issues.
