Levine, Grace Ferrari – Journal of Communication, 1977
Presents a study examining current network television newscasts to determine the extent to which "helplessness" models are depicted. Concludes that there is little variation between the networks and that, in some ways, the rendering of the story rather than the event itself produces the "helplessness" model. (JMF)
