This bachelor thesis focuses on the analysis of the topic of antisemitism in articles published between 2019 and 2020 on five chosen Czech news websites iDNES.cz, Aktuálně.cz, Seznam Zprávy, iROZHLAS.cz and ČT24. The aim of the thesis is to describe media imagine of the topic of antisemitism and how the selected media inform about antisemitism, by using quantitative and qualitative analysis. Theoretical part of the thesis is mainly focused on the definiton of the concepts, well known from the media and communication studies such as agenda-setting, framing, gatekeeping, news values or the history of propaganda. This part of the thesis also focuses on the topic of antisemitism itself, it's history, definition and modern usage of this term. Methodological part is mainly focused on brief description of the five chosen news websites, their history and ownership structure, followed by defining the selected methods of analysis that are used in this bachelor thesis. The result of the analysis was that both public service media and private media reflected the topic of antisemitism most often in the form of a news article. Foreign events predominate in all monitored media and surprisingly, no significant differences were found between public and private media in the types of sources they used.
