Abstract: In spotlighting the testimonies of police officers while ignoring eyewitness accounts, thesenewspapers violated many of the journalist standards that reporters are contractually and ethically bound to uphold. 46 Such findings are critical for understanding how media framing influences representations of people, places, and events. Since many individuals acquire their information from news reports, it is likely that the press has affected the thinking of scores of people about the raid that resulted in the murders of Clark and Hampton.
