| dc.description.abstract | This research attempted to examine the status of Addis Zemen and Ethiopis in human rights violations reporting, which is a means to the promotion and protection of these rights. The two newspapers were chosen to examine the practices in government and private media institutions. In order to examine the role that the newspapers played in reporting human rights violation, the researcher employed qualitative research method. In-depth interview was conducted with 6 purposively selected journalists while selected articles from both newspapers were also analyzed. Data which were gathered from primary and secondary sources were comparatively analyzed. The study revealed that there were significant differences in reporting human rights violation in the country. Ethiopis was far better than Addis Zemen in humanitarian crisis reporting. Major causes for human rights violation got attention in every week’s publication of Ethiopis. However, Addis Zemen refrained from reporting humanitarian crisis. The other difference which was found by the study is that almost all Ethiopis’s articles on the issue were critical of government; however Addis Zemen’s were pro government. Many stories in Addis Zemen sourced government officials, however victims in Ethiopis. | en_US |
