Focusing on the effects that color photography has had on the content of photographs published in daily newspapers in the United States, a study conducted interviews with both photographers and photo editors and also carried out a content analysis comparison of photographs published before and after the use of color at a small daily, "The Herald-Telephone" of Bloomington, Indiana. The content analysis was conducted for six weeks in 1988. Four aspects of photographs were analyzed: (1) whether a photo was taken indoors, outdoors at night, or outdoors during the day; (2) whether a photo accompanied a front page story, a story on another page, or was a stand-alone photograph; (3) whether a photo was staff or wire; and (4) the picture's category (spot news, general news, feature, portrait/personality, sports action, sports feature, or head shot combo). Findings indicated that more front-page photos were taken outdoors after color use than before; fewer news photos and more feature photos appeared on newspaper front pages after a newspaper switched from black-and-white to color photographs; and fewer front-page photographs accompanied stories after color use than before. (Thirty-three notes are included, and four tables of data are attached.) (MM)
