Abstract

Creating a new theory requires a disciplined outline of the constructs used (with theoretical and operational definitions), a list of theoretical statements (assumptions and hypotheses, each with theoretical and operational linkages) and methods that can test the hypotheses. Shoemaker’s example discusses building a theory of “hard-wired news,” which is derived from theories of biological and cultural evolution. The theory explains why much of the news is about statistical, normative and social change deviance, and why this is true around the world. Deviance makes up much of the world’s news, and differences between countries largely rely on how deviance is defined culturally.
