ABSTRACT
Objective:
To understand how equity appeared in news about food assistance from 2021.Methods:
We assessed a national sample of news articles (N=298) for equity arguments and language about racial and health equity.Results:
Only 28% of coverage argued that food assistance programs promote equity. Just 6% mentioned people of color or named racial disparities in food access.Discussion:
Narratives that explain how food assistance programs reduce inequities could deepen their policy appeal and broaden public perceptions around recipients. Health Equity Implications There are opportunities for news coverage to expand the discussion of how food assistance programs improve racial and health equity outcomes.
