| 520 | |a Using a revised theoretical model of newsworthiness, a study investigated the prominence with which world events are covered by the United States news media. The model differs from previous newsworthiness studies by adding two measures of the deviance of events and by including several country-based social significance predictor variables. Two hundred events that occurred outside the United States were selected from the 1985 Keesing's index. Coverage of world events was measured for the "New York Times" and the three major television network news programs, according to the prominence of each event's coverage. Results indicated that prominence of news coverage is best explained by normative deviance and economic factors interacting. Findings suggest that an important contributor to variance in U. S. media coverage of world events is an interaction between the deviance of the events and the social significance to the United States of the country in which the event occurs, as well as the separate main effects of these variables.
