Content Analysis:

The book "Content Analysis" by Sileshi Yilma, published in 2011 by VDM Verlag, offers an in-depth analysis of the coverage of corruption in Ethiopian media, particularly in the Amharic bi-weekly newspaper "Reporter." The study highlights the extent to which the media are able to uncover corruption cases in a timely manner to enable the public to make informed decisions. The findings show that embezzlement was the most common topic in the reporting and that the newspaper primarily relied on the Ethiopian Anti-Corruption Commission as a source. Additionally, it is noted that "Reporter" places more emphasis on institutional corruption, while coverage of individual cases is less prominent. The strength of the newspaper lies in its use of its own staff for article creation, which enhances the authenticity and depth of the reporting.
