Griffin, Jeffrey L.; Stevenson, Robert L.
Newspaper Research Journal, v13 n1-2 p84-99 Win-Spr 1992
Uses a "New York Times" story about a bloody international conflict to measure (with college students) the effect of adding background and context information within the story itself and in a separate graphic on reader understanding of the background and context of the dramatic event. Finds that both techniques are highly effective. (NKA)
