| Abstract | This study examines the coverage of the Rosenberg case in the "New York Times,""Chicago Tribune," and the "New Orleans Times-Picayune," from 20 May until 22 June 1953, the month prior to the execution. These three major metropolitan dailies represent different geographical areas and political orientations. It was hypothesized that bias was shown in the use of inflammatory headlines, anticommunist labels, and stereotypes; the lack of coverage of actions by defense attorney Bloch; and the more frequent reference to government officials and prosecuting attorneys than to defense attorneys and Rosenberg supporters. The study found that all three newspapers reflected some anticommunist bias, the "New York Times" most subtly. The "Chicago Tribune" made much use of labels and inflammatory headlines, appearing to reflect the strongest bias of the three papers. The "New Orleans Times-Picayune" obtained most of its material from the wire services; little bias was reflected in its news stories. The study concludes that journalists did reflect the biases of their day in the coverage of the Rosenberg case. (Author/JM) |
