Abstract
This study investigates the portrayal of a number of ethnic minorities in the press, drawing upon analysis of all articles to appear in three Dutch newspapers from 1990 to 1995, resulting in almost 8000 articles. The study examined which different ethnic groups were described, to what extent attention for a group had changed over time, what themes were present in the articles and to what extent problems and crime played a part in these articles. The results showed some remarkable similarities between portrayal in the media of various ethnic minorities and the ethnic hierarchy found among the Dutch population.Keywords
