Podcasts are one good place to look for new frames. Always on the prowl for a good pro-migrant frame that goes beyond the common - and often progressive - promigrant arguments, I hunted in iTunes for a conservative frame, starting with a simple word search for "immigration." Hidden among the many results were plenty of pro-migrant conservative frames.
For instance, there was this libertarian Mormon podcast. One particular discussion about immigrants, which starts at the 21-minute mark of this episode, hammers home freedom of contract:
Why should I have to ask the government permission to contract with this guy from outside the country?That's just one of the various conservative frames I found on that search, and I may post the others I found in the days to come, but the point is that frames can be found.
Try this: pick a topic, head to iTunes, and find at least one frame that is new to you. Tell me in the comments what you uncovered.
