Abstract
This study content analyzed all of the 265 news story abstracts on various types of plastic surgery from the five major TV networks during the past three decades. Coverage increased during the time periods, concentrating in the 1990s when public health controversy about breast implants erupted. Overall, TV network news coverage was most concerned with the issue of safety and health risk and framed coverage with an emphasis on risk. Unlike traditional health reporting, which relies mostly on doctors in the field, news coverage about plastic surgery extensively used experts from other fields.
