Fox News Channel Constructed Realities of Christchurch Shooting

---

Fox News Channel is a mass media that has ideological ties to the United States
Republican Party. Fox & Friends is claimed to be the highest rating cable news program
in the US since 2001. In 2019, Fox & Friends reported Christchurch Shooting. The
Christchurch incident is the deadliest mass shooting in New Zealand history. FNC
constructed reality potentially influenced the public’s understanding of Christchurch
shooting. This research examines and explores FNC constructed reality by analyzing
how the perpetrators, motives, and impacts are framed. Based on research findings,
FNC constructed reality denied the Christchurch shooting as an act of terror. It also tried
to influence public understanding that the perpetrator has no ideological connection
with Donald Trump. When compared with the Utrecht shooting, FNC chose to use
word terror in describing the event, even before the Dutch government gave an official
statement regarding the incident. FNC constructed reality shows bias and favoritism
towards perpetrators of a certain race, which contradicts the company’s slogan that
claims to produce fair and balanced coverages. Thus, to carry out the journalistic
functions in a democratic country, FNC must educate the public about the realities,
instead of spreading biased and discriminatory reporting.
