Abstract
Media coverage of political insurgency can inform and influence public opinion in understanding how dissident groups operate. This chapter, informed by Frame Theory and Critical Discourse Analysis, addresses the research question, “What are the narratives unfolding around white supremacists’ depiction in US mainstream media?” The study reveals a shift in media narratives toward labeling hate crime as domestic terror, the scattered media practice to sanitize or humanize hate crime, and a recurring blame on Trump for failing to delegitimize white nationalism.
