摘要：

This article documents the discursive practices that framed journalistic accounts of suicidal acts in the burgeoning Quebec tabloid press during the second quarter of the 20th century. The new medium's emphasis on human interest reporting contributed to making suicide highly visible, on both a local and global stage, highlighting the perceived entertainment value of these accounts as secular and family-oriented entertainment, while also reinforcing their representation as criminalized or deviant acts.
