Os media ocupam um lugar central no processo de poder simbólico através do qual a saúde e assuntos sociais são definidos e as soluções legitimadas (Hodgetts, 2012).…”

“…While attention has been paid to the coverage of SDOH in news media (Gollust, Lantz, & Ubel, 2009;Hodgetts, 2012;Kim, Kumanyika, Shive, Igweatu, & Kim, 2010;Raphael, 2011) and its framing (Aronowitz, 2008;Koh, Oppenheimer, Massin-Short, Emmons, Geller, & Viswanath, 2010;Niederdeppe, Bu, Borah, Kindig, & Robert, 2008), there remains a need to consider how these operate in various settings over time.
