Framing Of Latinx Vote Choice And Voter Registration, Laurel E. Bennett
Framing Of Latinx Vote Choice And Voter Registration, Laurel E. Bennett
Student Publications
This work investigates media framing done by CNN between the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections. Although Latinx voters remain underrepresented and under researched, they have the ability to highly influence elections. Specifically, CNN uses the sleeping giant frame, the need for Latinx voter registration as a frame, and the importance of Latinx voter mobilization as a frame in the 2020 presidential election more prominently than in the 2016 presidential election upon consideration of Latinx vote choice and voter turnout.
