This in depth analysis looks at how suicide was represented in the British press when 20 young people between the ages of 15 and 29 took their own lives in the South Wales Borough of Bridgend in 2008. The chapters highlight specific categories of description that journalists use to explain suicide to their readers. The study also examines the discourses that emerged around suicide that continue to perpetuate stigma and shame when suicide occurs today. Using her own experience of having lost a loved one to suicide, coupled with original research, the author gives a very frank explanation of why suicide is not accepted in society today.
Ann Luce is Senior Lecturer in Journalism and Communication at Bournemouth University, UK. She worked for nearly 10 years in newspaper and magazine journalism in the United States. Much of her research focuses on the reporting of suicide, but she has also worked on projects around representations of midwifery in the media, as well as teaching disabled people how to become citizen journalists.
