a clearer image of my PhD

It took quite a lot of reading (and still not enough) to decide which way to go with my PhD. Just few days ago I have submitted my outline to the school. I have stated that my dissertation will use as theoretical framework the agenda setting. This means that my methodology will consist mainly of content analyses (both qualitative and quantitative) comparing pr press releases (this is new!) with online articles published my non-accredited journalists present at the Olympic Games (they are usually accredited by the Games organizing municipality) and with personal blogs picked up by Google Alerts. This is roughly what I will do. Next, I need to polish up my methodology but at least I made some progress.
