  • 用焦点小组引导分析2000多篇本地新闻,结合文本分析方法。
  • 8人参与,发现重要议题覆盖不足,阅读难度偏高。
  • 适合想提升媒体包容性的本地新闻机构参考。

研究表明新闻消费存在群体差异,但对非主流受众尤其是本地媒体读者了解甚少。本研究聚焦欧洲某中型城市中的法语移民,探讨其如何接触本地新闻及其需求是否在报道中体现。通过8名社区成员的焦点小组访谈,指导选择自然语言处理方法(主题建模、信息检索、情感分析、可读性分析),应用于超过2000篇本地新闻文章。结果显示,尽管报道频繁涉及本地事件,但参与者关注的重要议题仍存在覆盖空白;情感分析显示整体语气积极,可读性评估表明文本需达到中高级法语水平,可能影响融入。本研究有助于弥合本地媒体内容与多元读者需求之间的差距,可为地方媒体拓展报道范围、吸引更广泛受众提供参考。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Research shows news consumption differs across demographics, yet little is known about non-mainstream audiences, especially in relation to local media. Our study addresses this gap by examining how French-speaking migrants in a mid-size European city engage with local news, and whether their needs are reflected in coverage. Eight community members participated in focus groups, whose insights guided the selection of natural language processing methods (topic modeling, information retrieval, sentiment analysis, and readability) applied to over 2000 hyper-local news articles. Results showed that while articles frequently covered local events, gaps remained in topics important to participants. Sentiment analysis revealed a generally positive tone, and readability measures indicated an intermediate-advanced French level, raising questions about accessibility for integration. Our work contributes to bridging the gap between local news platforms' content and diverse readers' needs, and could inform local media organizations about opportunities to expand their current news story coverage to appeal to more diverse audiences.
