Povzetek

Raziskava preučuje prikazovanje samomora v slovenskih časopisih med leti 1959 in 1999. To je obdobje, ki ga zaznamujejo globoke družbeno-politične spremembe. Preko analize 1.785 člankov, pridobljenih iz arhivov dveh glavnih časopisov, Dela in Večera, smo identificirali dinamičen odnos med načinom medijskega poročanja o samomoru in razvijajočim se družbenim kontekstom. Naše ugotovitve nakazujejo na prehod od pretežno provokativnega k bolj preventivnemu poročanju o samomorih skozi desetletja. Kljub splošnemu trendu v smeri bolj preventivnega poročanja, pa je razmerje med provokativnimi in preventivnimi vidiki v posameznem članku dosledno nakazovalo na prevladovanje provokativnega poročanja, in to v vseh preučevanih obdobjih. V zgodnjih letih, ki so bila predmet preučevanja v okviru te študije, je bilo poročanje o samomoru pogosto senzacionalistično, kar bi lahko pripisali različnim dejavnikom, med drugim tudi manj ozaveščenim medijskim praksam. V 1990-ih letih pa smo opazili presenetljiv porast tako preventivnega kot provokativnega poročanja, kar sovpada z osamosvojitvijo Slovenije in liberalizacijo medijev. Nihanje trenda poročanja je v nasprotju z izsledki globalnih študij, a poudarja povezanost med mediji, družbeno-političnimi spremembami in javnim dojemanjem samomora. Raziskava izpostavlja pomen medijev ter izziv uravnavanja javnega interesa in družbene odgovornosti pri poročanju o samomoru.
