Abstract

The article attempts to test the hypothesis that saliency (first level of agenda-setting) and image atributes (second level of agenda-setting) also occur through photography. As empirical material for a case-study, one has collected and analised photojournalistic elements in the press coverage of municipal elections in Salvador (Bahia). The general conclusion is that media vehicles do set valorative agendas not only through textual elements, but through iconic elements as well.
