metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: Mass media with the help of language form the picture of the world among readers, listeners,
  spectators. For this reason, studies of the representation of ethnic problems and issues in the
  media are important as the media is special linguistic tool to influence public opinion. The tradition
  of analyzing the media and identifying the main ways of representing ethnic problems
  was formed in the 1970s. Scientifically-based monitoring of Russian media activities in such a
  delicate and painful area as coverage of various aspects of inter-ethnic interaction is necessary
  and very much in demand. We believe that the range of tools used by media to shape attitudes
  to different ethnic conflicts and problems is very diverse. The main working hypothesis of
  the study was the assumption that the style of presenting information on ethnic issues has
  changed significantly over the post-Soviet period, and the media place considerable emphasis
  on the emotional component. To achieve this, appropriate graphics (photos, pictures) and
  catchy emotional headlines should be used. Content analysis of more than 300 publications
  in the electronic newspaper “Arguments and facts” and on the portal “Fontanka.ru” showed
  that it is not so. Dramatic techniques, catchy headlines with a large number of emotional
  statements were peculiar to the period of the 90s, while after 2010 there has been an increase
  in the number of articles in a neutral style, and the range of covered issues has widened. To a
  large extent, the choice of events for media coverage depends on editorial policy and is related
  to the adoption of the agenda.
