Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Revision with unchanged content. As the chorus demanding substantive worldwide action on global warming grows louder, the stakes are ever higher for human health, the environment, and the economy. Research has established that the news media both reflect and influence public opinion and the policymaking process. An under­standing of news coverage of climate change and its sibling, the ozone hole, is invaluable for anyone serious about addressing today's global environ­men-tal problems. This interdisciplinary study illuminates the impact of American press coverage on the global warming and stratospheric ozone debates as they unfolded over the past quarter century. Using an original content ana-lysis approach, it takes stock of trends in economic, political, social, scientific, and environmental arguments in hundreds of news reports and examines their role in the very different outcomes of the Kyoto and Montreal protocols. Interviews with key players in the process round out the analysis. This work is relevant to many fields - including communication, journalism, environmental studies, and the policy sciences - and it has important implications for those working on the front lines of today's climate change fight.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
