ABSTRACT

Media show different positions about reporting news and daily interests. Through content analysis, authors investigate leading daily newspapers regarding positions about various leisure and tourism news involving editorials. Not many editorials on leisure and tourism could be found in the media for the last decade. It may show that the media does not have much interest in leisure and tourism fields. For example the Hankyoreh, a rather progressive newspaper, had dealt with tourism fields only thirteen times for the last five years before the IMF crisis and it was strongly critical. However, on the other hand in the case of the Chosun Ilbo known as one of conservative newspaper, it had rather positive stance about leisure and tourism and this trends were more clear after the financial crisis.
