Abstract：
In health news production, sourcing and framing are two critical mechanisms that influence how newsreaders think about and perceive the severity of a health issue. Understanding how local media covers the cancer control continuum is vital. However, very limited studies have looked at the effect of sourcing and framing in cancer news coverage, and it is still unknown how sources and news frames shape cancer coverage, especially in non-Western countries.
This study examines framing and sourcing patterns in news stories reporting on cancer control in Malaysian mainstream (English) and ethnicity (Chinese) online news sites, uncovering underlining associations between essential news components, source, and framing.
We used a predesigned code book to conduct a quantitative content analysis on cancer news stories (n = 841) published on two Malaysian English and Chinese online news sites from 2017 to 2019. Cancer news received adequate coverage in Malaysian English and Chinese media and was also session-centered.
Two logistic regression models demonstrated the internal relationships between sourcing, framing, and different elements in cancer coverage. In terms of news sources, the results revealed that medical journals were the most likely to be cited when the news focused on medical research, followed by primary cancer prevention. When the news concentrated on statistical cancer reports and environmental/occupational risk factors, government agencies were more likely to be interviewed. Of news frames, when the news articles engaged with medical institutions and mentioned medical publications, the lifestyle frame was very likely to be shown, but the environmental frame was more likely to be portrayed when interviewing medical practitioners.
This study is the first comprehensive assessment to analyze and compare Malaysian English and Chinese online cancer news coverages and uncover underlying associations between news components, sourcing, and framing paradigms. We contributed to the scholarly understanding of cancer news coverage. This study can serve as a model for future health promotion researchers, journalists, and policymakers. Implications for cancer risk communication research, health journalist practices, and health policymaking were discussed.

摘要：
未经批准：在健康新闻制作中，采购和框架是影响新闻读者如何思考和感知健康问题严重性的两个关键机制。了解当地媒体如何覆盖癌症控制连续体至关重要。然而,非常有限的研究着眼于癌症新闻报道中来源和框架的影响，目前还不清楚消息来源和新闻框架如何塑造癌症报道，尤其是在非西方国家。
UNASSIGNED：本研究调查了马来西亚主流（英语）和种族（中文）在线新闻网站中有关癌症控制的新闻报道的框架和来源模式，揭示重要新闻成分之间的联系，来源,和框架。
UNASSIGNED：我们使用预先设计的代码书对2017年至2019年在两个马来西亚英文和中文在线新闻网站上发布的癌症新闻报道（n=841）进行了定量内容分析。癌症新闻在马来西亚英语和中文媒体中得到了足够的报道，并且以会话为中心。
UNASSIGNED：两个逻辑回归模型证明了采购之间的内在联系，框架,和癌症覆盖中的不同元素。在新闻来源方面,结果显示，当新闻集中在医学研究时，医学期刊最有可能被引用，其次是初级癌症预防。当新闻集中在统计癌症报告和环境/职业危险因素时，政府机构更有可能接受采访。在新闻框架中，当新闻文章与医疗机构接触并提到医学出版物时，生活方式框架很有可能被展示出来，但是在采访医生时，更有可能描绘环境框架。
UNASSIGNED：这项研究是首次全面评估，旨在分析和比较马来西亚英文和中文在线癌症新闻报道，并揭示新闻成分之间的潜在关联。采购,和框架范式。我们为癌症新闻报道的学术理解做出了贡献。这项研究可以作为未来健康促进研究人员的模型，记者,和政策制定者。对癌症风险交流研究的影响，健康记者的做法，和卫生政策制定进行了讨论。
