Ten years after the 2008 Great Recession, US media recalled the experiences and lessons learned from its aftermath. Among these was Marketplace's Divided Decade project, which spanned calendar year 2018 and included 66 discrete stories covering the impact on individuals and different sectors. The project cut across both Marketplace Morning and its evening broadcast Marketplace, both syndicated by American Public Media (APM). Marketplace appeals to a public radio audience of elite, educated listeners who are located away from financial power centers but still wield influence. This audience is larger than any other U.S. broadcast business program. Using theories of affect, this paper will demonstrate how Marketplace's recollection of a critical event continued to shape attitudes about the economy. By using critical discourse analysis (CDA), I unearth how power is reified through financial news reporting practices. Marketplace's focus on individual narratives decoupled the crisis from its structural context, while its reliance on economic policy leaders emphasized their affective memories and justified official responses. Divided Decade upheld the status quo by separating the impact of the crisis from the lives that were affected, while foreclosing alternative approaches to the problems the 2008 crisis laid bare.

记住经济衰退:市场和现状新闻业

2008年经济大衰退十年后,美国媒体回顾了其后果的经验和教训。其中包括 Marketplace 的 Divided Decade 项目,该项目跨越 2018 年,包括 66 个独立的故事,涵盖了对个人和不同行业的影响。该项目涵盖了 Marketplace Morning 和晚间广播 Marketplace,两者均由美国公共媒体 (APM) 联合主办。Marketplace 吸引了受过教育的精英听众组成的公共广播电台听众,他们远离金融权力中心,但仍然具有影响力。这个观众比任何其他美国广播商业节目都要多。本文将利用影响理论,展示市场对重大事件的回忆如何继续塑造人们对经济的态度。通过使用批判性话语分析(CDA),我揭示了权力是如何通过财经新闻报道实践具体化的。市场对个人叙述的关注将危机与其结构背景脱钩,而它对经济政策领导人的依赖强调了他们的情感记忆和合理的官方反应。《分裂的十年》通过将危机的影响与受影响的生活区分开来维持现状,同时排除了解决 2008 年危机暴露的问题的其他方法。
