Sue Abel, Tuhoe and "terrorism" on television news

Seminar

There now exists a relatively large body of research which documents the ways in which "mainstream" news in Aotearoa New Zealand marginalises and/or distorts coverage of Treaty issues and of te ao Māori. Very little has been written, however, about differences in the ways in which Māori media select and construct news stories, and the implications of this. This paper is based on an analysis of the first day's television news coverage of the "terrorist"/"anti-terrorist" raids on the Eastern Bay of Plenty settlement of Ruatoki on October 15 2007.
