520 |a As Fundamentalist Christians have often claimed a bias in the media, this study probes for both explicit and implicit portrayals, examining the issues used by the media to frame discussions and the overall impression news clips offer. A population content analysis of network television news from 1980 to 2000 gathered from the Vanderbilt archive using search terms Fundamentalist and Christian indicated Fundamentalists are reported in a consistent, mildly negative manner. Politics is often the main focus of newscasts involving Fundamentalists, and conflict has been the most prevalent news value. Although often portrayed as being somewhat intolerant, racist, violent, and prone to impose their views on others, Fundamentalists are also depicted as being somewhat patriotic. Implications of these results are discussed.
