Abstract

My purpose in this paper [1] is twofold. It is, first, to explicate a specific text (which initially troubled me as an ordinary reader) and analytically to uncover the ways that its reading is made possible, how its sense and intelligibility are generated, what that tells us about the properties of social praxis and about the details of the relationship between news texts and 'reality'. Second, it is to lay out the features of an ethnomethodological approach to the study of media texts; indeed of texts generally.
