“…Often departing from the question why the media did not see it coming (e.g., Fraser, 2009;Lashmar, 2008;Starkman, 2009), scholars scrutinized the way in which the crisis was covered (Arrese & Vara-Miguel, 2016;Berry, 2012;Damstra & Vliegenthart, 2016;Happer, 2017;Pirie, 2012;Schifferes & Knowles, 2014) in multiple contexts. It is concluded that media covered the crisis rather uncritically, depriving the audience from a diverse array of possible solutions to it (Arrese & Vara-Miguel, 2016;Berry, 2012;Happer, 2017;Mercille, 2013;Pirie, 2012). The fact that even the most encompassing crisis of our times did not evoke more radical and critical responses underscores the dominance of the neoliberal paradigm in economic news reporting (Happer, 2017) and the difficulty for journalists to forge new ways to analyze outside the prevalent market-driven consensus (Arrese & Vara-Miguel, 2016, p. 150).…”
