Analysis of Article using Encoding/Decoding model
The Decoding Paper is meant to develop your critical interpretive skills by getting you to consider the different ways in which a news article may be understood by its readers. Using Stuart Hall’s Encoding/Decoding model, please provide an IN DEPTH analysis of the Ottawa Citizen article:“‘They’re making it free to pollute’: Environment Minister Catherine McKenna rejects Ontario’s ‘backwards’ climate policy” (2018). You can find it on: https://nationalpost.com/news/theyre-making-it-free-to-pollute-environment-minister-catherine-mckenna-rejects-ontarios-backwards-climate-policy Your paper should be written in essay format, and include a discussion of what you see as the dominanthegemonic position; the negotiated position; and the oppositional position taken by the articles readers. Your paper should also include citations to course materials, and include a bibliography at the end.
