TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Men with a hobby JO - Tijdschrift voor Criminologie A1 - Koetsenruijter, Willem A1 - Burger, Peter SP - 376 EP - 392 VL - 59 IS - 4 N2 - This study contains a qualitative framing analysis of outlaw motor clubs in Dutch newspaper articles. These clubs appear in the news as a source for positive framing to counterbalance the prevailing organized crime frame. The study shows with what rhetorical means club members are framed and how news media balance a criminal and a non-criminal image. In news articles club members refer to ethical norms and group values, and appear to employ mitigation strategies which take the hard edges off the frame and simultaneously increase their credibility.
