In the House vs NCAA case, what pair represent the MOST used frame and the LEAST used frame?

Franklin Delano Roosevelt was a strong believer in technocratic rule. In his first administration, he assembled a team of advisers made up of experts and academics known as [BLANK-1]. This team included Frances Perkins, Harold Ickes, and Louis D. Brandeis.

One argument for Soviet victory during Operation Barbarossa, and eventually in the eastern front overall, was the ready supply of American goods, particularly canned food goods like [BLANK-1], that was sent to supply Soviet soldiers and civilians. All-in-all, the Americans supplied the Soviets with more than 4 million tons of food.

A precursor to the Invasion of Italy and the opening up of a second front in Europe, [BLANK-1] occurred in the summer of 1943. It was the invasion of the island of Sicily, which would serve as the Mediterranean base of operations for the Allied Italian invasion.

A film from 1960 called [BLANK-1] depicted the American south during the Great Depression. It focused on an Agent from the TVA, who had to navigate racism in the south and also deal with concerns from locals about the loss of their property due to eminent domain. Although the TVA provided electricity to areas that had never had it, built much needed infrastructure, and created thousands of jobs for locals (all paid for by the federal government), it also increased distrust of the government in the region as some families were forced to relocate. While those forced to move were adequately reimbursed by the government, they continued to resent the issue because they had to abandon their homes, land, and property.

Part of the Harlem Renaissance, [BLANK-1], was a music venue in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City. It featured Black culture, music, and heritage and many celebrated musicians performed at the location; however, due to Jim Crow laws African Americans could perform but could not be customers. It became a site where whites journeyed to see authentic jazz.

[BLANK-1] was a popular musician who found fame in the 1950s and helped to popularize Rock n’ Roll nationally. The genre was invented by Black musicians, such as Chuck Berry, but this young, handsome, and charismatic White singer brought Rock n’ Roll to the mainstream. Speaking of his importance, fellow musician Bruce Springsteen said he “gave us full access to a new language, a new form of communication, a new way of being, a new way of looking, a new way of thinking; about sex, about race, about identity, about life; a new way of being an American, a human being; and a new way of hearing music….Once he came across the airwaves, once he was heard and seen in action, you could not put the genie back in the bottle. After that moment, there was yesterday, and there was today, and there was a red hot, rockabilly forging of a new tomorrow, before your very eyes.” Young women, particularly, were enamored with the singer’s looks, energy, and sensuality, much to the chagrin of their parents who felt that his dancing was sexually suggestive and perverse.

True or false: according o the lecture, conflict framing is good for the media.

What narrative was generally not told in the context of the House vs. NCAA case?

[BLANK-1] was instrumental toward forming the financial, organizational, and ideological underpinnings of the free-market advocacy groups that emerged and found ready adherents in America’s new suburban spaces in the postwar decades. It became a precursor, in some ways, to libertarian economic philosophy. During the Great Depression (an economic disaster that firmly undermined the intellectual justifications for keeping government out of the economy), this organization attracted true believers in the myth of the free market. During the depression, this organization reinvented itself and initiated advertising campaigns supporting free enterprise and “the American way of life.” It attracted likeminded business leaders such as J. Howard Pew of Sun Oil and Jasper Crane of DuPont Chemical Co. who worked hard to spread the message of free enterprise to the American people.
