Abstract

Building on the diagram of the communication process offered in Chap. 1, this chapter explores two overlays on the diagram: one called the Media Hegemony Thesis, which examines power relationships in the process, and the other named Indigenous Metaphysics, which looks for Native knowledges and values in the context of conflicts featured in this book. I have accepted the challenge by critics to add muscle to the investigation of framing by examining how meanings transfer from one juncture in the diagram—such as social discourse—to another—such as mass media. I also ask how frames produce meaning, how meanings are constructed over time, the ideological nature of relationships unfold in discourse, and how equity and justice unfold in frames.
