Lundman, RJ. “The newsworthiness and selection bias in news about murder: Comparative and relative effects of novelty and race and gender typifications on newspaper coverage of homicide.” Sociological Forum 18.3 (2003): 357-386.
This article seems very interesting from looking at the issue of how race and ethnicity is constructed in media discourse in regards to homicide. It explores the bias's that media have towards different races and how news stories are often altered due to this. It seems as though it would be very informative, although it is specified into a certain type of media story.
Coltrane, S., and Messineo, M. “The perpetuation of subtle prejudice: Race and gender imagery in 1990s television advertising.” Sex Roles 42.5-6 (2000): 363-389.
This article looks at the portrayal of race and ethnicity in regards to advertising. It explains how advertisements construct stereotypes and follow thes stereotypes that society has on different races. It also explores this in respect to gender, which I feel would be an interesting combination to explore. It explains how society is affected by these stereotypical advertisements. This article seems to be very interesting and I think it would provide great information for the topic of how different races and ethnicities are portrayed in the media.
Meyers, M. “African American women and violence: Gender, race, and class in the news.” Critical Studies in Media Communication 21.2 (2004): 95-118.
This seems to be an excellent example of how media alters the stories that they report on in order to conform to/enforce stereotypes of different races and ethnicities. It explores the stories of violence against African American women and how the media to not accurately report these stories. Although this article is specified in terms of which race they explore, it seems as though it is very informative and interesting, and thus, should be worth reading.
