Abstract

This study is for analyzing the tone, the frame and the characteristics of political news in social media. Social news media is not same as old media in sharing news freely by SNS like tweeter, facebook and reporting, editing by anyone using SNS with various opinions. With Content analysis, sampling 419 cases from 'Wikitree' by the keyword, 'presidential election', all the full text analysed each how is social media making public opinion differently and which frame is using in. As the result, the social media has different tone, frame, and characteristic due to the reported figure, type of report, information source, attitude to the government, specifically shows a lack of in-depth report and distinct soft-journalism just same as old media's. Because the tone of social news media is not probable, specific but improbable, vague, using the irrational, strategic and episodic frame mainly.

본 연구는 소셜 미디어 정치 뉴스의 논조와 프레임 유형 및 특성을 분석한 것이다. 소셜 미디어 뉴스는 트위터나 페이스북 등 SNS를 기반으로 자유롭게 정보를 공유하고 누구나 기사를 작성하고 편집할 수 있는 특성으로 인해 기존 미디어가 따라올 수 없을 만큼 의견의 다양성을 실현시키고 있다. 이에 구체적으로 소셜 미디어 뉴스가 어떻게 기존 미디어와 차별적으로 뉴스를 형성하고 있는지, 어떠한 뉴스 프레임으로 여론을 형성하고 있는지 살펴보고자 국내 소셜 뉴스매체인 '위키트리'를 대상으로 '대통령선거' 키워드 검색을 통해 총 419건의 기사를 추출한 후 내용분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 소셜 미디어 정치 뉴스의 논조와 프레임 유형은 보도인물, 게재유형, 정보원, 주제범주, 현 정권에 대한 태도에 따라 유의미한 차이를 보였는데 심층성이 부족하고 연성화가 뚜렷해져 기존 미디어가 가지는 정치 뉴스의 한계를 여전히 벗어나지 못하고 있는 것으로 해석된다. 소셜 미디어 정치 뉴스의 논조는 개연적, 구체적이기 보다 당위적, 추상적인 것으로 나타났고 주로 감성, 전략, 일화 중심의 프레임을 사용하고 있는 것으로 나타났기 때문이다.
