- Framing Referendum Campaigns in the News (MUP, 2018) is based on research on the 2014 Scottish Referendum. It analyses 64 hours of television coverage, 3,415 newspaper articles, and interviews with senior broadcasters, campaign communicators and civil society representatives. It compares this analysis to the framing of referendums in other European contexts and proposes a theoretical framework to help understand how the media construct frames in this type of political event. Research was supported by a two-year ESRC Future Research Leaders grant (2015-2016). The 70,000-word monograph is the culmination of three years of intellectual engagement with debates on media framing.
