TRUMP25 titles-1Skeptical“skeptical with critical framing”
Patterns
- Quotes Trump's statements with distancing or critical context
- Foregrounds opposition and backlash to Trump's actions
- Uses scare quotes around Trump's initiatives ('Board of Peace')
- Highlights Trump's errors or controversial claims
Caveats
The outlet often reports Trump's actions neutrally but selects headlines that emphasize criticism, opposition, and gaffes. The entity's quoted content is sometimes amplified without overt hostility, but the overall framing is skeptical rather than celebratory. The scare quotes around 'Board of Peace' and focus on backlash suggest a critical stance.
Pakistan25 titles0Reportorial“neutral institutional reporting”
Patterns
- reports government actions and statements without evaluative framing
- covers domestic crises (fire, displacement, tree-cutting) factually
- includes opposition voices and criticism of government
- highlights diplomatic engagements positively but without promotion
Caveats
Coverage is mixed: some headlines report government actions neutrally (e.g., PM Shehbaz announcements, Dar's diplomacy), while others include criticism of authorities (e.g., lawyers jailed, tree-cutting, politicisation of fire). No consistent positive or negative stance toward the country entity; outlet maintains a balanced, factual tone across domestic and foreign affairs.

United States25 titles-1Skeptical“skeptical of US actions and Trump's approach”
Patterns
- Trump's threats and demands framed as aggressive or overreaching
- Quotes from other nations rejecting US positions
- Editorial headline 'Trump’s overplayed hand' signals critical stance
- Coverage highlights backlash and resistance to US policies
Caveats
Many headlines are factual reports of Trump's statements and actions, but the selection includes multiple stories of foreign pushback and an editorial critical of Trump, indicating a skeptical stance toward the US administration's tactics. The entity is 'US' as a country, but coverage focuses heavily on Trump's controversial policies, which may conflate stance toward the administration with stance toward the country.
