Abstract
Using content analysis, this study examined the coverage on the repeal and replace efforts of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2017 in three African American online newspapers—Afro.Com, AtlantaBlackStar.Com, and PhillyTrib.com. Top three news frames across the news coverage by these online newspapers reflected political contention and political maneuverings around the ACA and potential policy implications of the Republicans’ proposed bills to replace the ACA.
