COVID-19 media coverage in France and Germany: A comparative and discursive frame-based analysis

The aim of this contribution is to present some methodological considerations within a comparative and discursive frame-based analysis. Using the example of the current French and German Covid-19 media coverage (media discourse), successive steps of analysis, which are based on two different frame approaches, will be connected in an integrative model. First, frames that are evoked by verbs will be analyzed using the lexical-semantic resource FrameNet (top-down). Second, the focus will be placed on frames evoked by nouns (bottom-up). © Revue du Gerflint (France)
