Print News Media Coverage of Sex Trafficking and Prostitution in Minnesota, 1995-2014 Dr. Lauren Martin University of Minnesota The Robert J. Jones Urban Research and Outreach-Engagement Center (UROC) October 24, 2016

Goals of this research Understand print media coverage See if there are any changes in coverage over time Contribute to the larger project: “Mapping the Demand for Sex with Trafficked Individuals in Minnesota.” Media coverage has a symbiotic relationship with public opinion. It both reflects and shapes how people think about issues and experiences. It is NOT the same as public opinion.

“Mapping the Demand”: Overview Who are sex buyers? How do they enter the market? What are the statewide market pattern? Data Collected: 158 people interviewed across Minnesota ALL prostitution and sex trafficking cases in MNCIS Print News Media Content Analysis Analysis of online sex market

Methods: Print Media Review The team identified all print news articles pertaining to sex trafficking and also prostitution from 1995-2015. The sample = 1,565 articles We read, coded and analyzed a random sample of approximately 20% of all the articles in each year, which was 265 articles.

Search Terms used: “sex trafficking” & “prostitution” Two dominant conceptual frameworks for commercial sex in Minnesota during the time period Lots of advocates worked to re-frame the issue How are the two frameworks represented in print media coverage?

Sample of Print Media Coverage (MN): Terms “Prostitution” and “Sex Trafficking” Combined

Sample of Print Media Coverage (MN): Terms “Prostitution” and “Sex Trafficking” Separated

Conclusions Dramatic increase in coverage starting in 2007 and accelerating in 2013 Increasing use of the term “sex trafficking” in print media coverage The narrative framework associated with the term “sex trafficking” is different from “prostitution” More discussion of the “issue” itself vs. coverage of arrests Portrayal women and children involved in commercial sex as victims in need of social services rather than as criminals.

What is Next? More analysis and exploration of media coverage: Deeper dive into this content We also analyzed print news media coverage of sex buyers “Mapping the Demand for Sex with Trafficked Individuals in Minnesota” out in early 2017!
