What is framing? What are the positive and negative implications of framing? Use an example from the chapter to support your answer

What will be an ideal response?

An ideal response will:
1, Discuss how media framing is the process by which the media create a context for a story that shapes the way that citizens perceive it.
2, Provide a brief example from the book, and discuss how the issue is framed and the implications of how the issue is framed. For example, students might select poverty, a national disaster like Hurricane Katrina, or racial problems in the United States.
3, Discuss how framing can be positive in that it helps citizens put events into a context and can elicit a particular reaction such as public support for a government program or government intervention. Also, discuss how it can be negative in that framing can create false perceptions of an event.
