330 .. $a "Why in the early 1970s does The Times reject the idea of a national lottery, as rewarding
luck not merit and effort, but warmly welcome one by the 1990s? Why in the 1970s do
the Daily Mail's TV reviews address serious contemporary themes such as class- and
race-relations, whereas forty years later they are largely concerned with celebrities,
talent shows, and nostalgia? Why does the Conservative Chancellor in the 2010s mention
'Britain' so very often, when the Conservative Chancellor in the 1970s scarcely does
at all? Covering news stories spanning fort-five years, Michael Toolan explores how
wealth inequality has been presented in centre-right British newspapers, focusing
on changes in the representation may have helped present-day inequality seem justifiable.
Toolan employs corpus linguistic and critical discourse analytic methods to identify
changing lexis and verbal patterns and gaps, all of which contribute to the way wealth
inequality was represented in each of the decades from the 1970s to the present"
