- Authors
Belkhodja, Chedly; Richard, Chantal
- Abstract
Following the tragic September 11 attacks, Canadians felt a need to understand the causes and consequences. In the face of such dramatic events, the media began to produce informative content in an effort to reassure a worried public. The first part of this study presents the results of a statistical analysis of the main French-language newspapers in Canada. The second offers an interpretation of a content and lexical analysis. Three themes -- representations of Islam, immigration, and multiculturalism-were studied.
