| Abstract | Noting that efforts of governments to control newspapers are more problematic where news photographs are concerned, a study compared the news photos printed in an English-language Argentinian newspaper during and after a period of totalitarian rule. The study sample was a simulated "week" of issues, consisting of one day from each month for the first seven months of 1981 and 1985. (Argentine democracy was resorted in 1983). Photographs from each issue were categorized by source and by content. To determine content, two categories were used: photographs considered politically sensitive, such as pictures of political or governmental activity, and "all others," which included spot news, mug shots, and public relations photographs. The results indicated notable differences in the types of photographs published, depending on the government under which the paper was operating. The photo sources indicated an editorial move away from substantial reliance on photos of people and events outside of Argentina (Reuters News Service) toward the use of domestic Argentinian news photos by two Argentine news services once democracy was restored. The cross tabulation of photos by content under the two governments was equally interesting, but less clearly defined. A rather small number of photos was judged politically sensitive in the samples from both governments, but the use of politically sensitive photos doubled under democratic rule. (HTH) |
