Focusing on the McArthur murders, the book explores how the intersection of identities—such as sexual orientation, race, and class—shapes media narratives. It examines the unique complexities of the case, emphasizing that it should not be compared to other serial killer incidents. By analyzing coverage from two major Canadian media outlets across different formats, the study seeks to uncover how these platforms frame the multifaceted and deviant aspects of the story, providing insights into media approaches to intricate social phenomena.
