框架之争：评估印度选举新闻报道中的冲突框架
Framing the Fray: Evaluating Conflict Frames in Indian Election News Coverage
AI总结：
本研究分析2014和2019年印度大选七家主要新闻媒体的冲突框架使用，发现其与意识形态无关而与电视媒体相关，且媒体倾向报道攻击而忽略实质议题。
摘要：
在报道选举时，记者常使用冲突框架，将事件和议题描绘为对抗性的，往往突出对立政党之间的冲突。尽管冲突框架能提高公民参与度，但可能分散对实质性政策讨论的注意力。在本研究中，我们分析了2014年和2019年印度大选期间，七家主要新闻媒体在在线英文新闻文章中对冲突框架的使用情况。我们发现，冲突框架的使用与新闻媒体的意识形态偏见无关，而与电视媒体（而非印刷媒体）相关。此外，大多数新闻媒体在包含冲突框架的文章中，将政党描绘为攻击者或目标时并未表现出意识形态偏见。最后，通过比较报道政治演讲的新闻文章与其原始演讲文本，我们发现，平均而言，新闻媒体倾向于持续报道演讲中对反对党的攻击，但较少报道演讲中涉及的更实质性的选举议题，如农民问题和基础设施。
英文摘要：
In covering elections, journalists often use conflict frames which depict events and issues as adversarial, often highlighting confrontations between opposing parties. Although conflict frames result in more citizen engagement, they may distract from substantive policy discussion. In this work, we analyze the use of conflict frames in online English-language news articles by seven major news outlets in the 2014 and 2019 Indian general elections. We find that the use of conflict frames is not linked to the news outlets' ideological biases but is associated with TV-based (rather than print-based) media. Further, the majority of news outlets do not exhibit ideological biases in portraying parties as aggressors or targets in articles with conflict frames. Finally, comparing news articles reporting on political speeches to their original speech transcripts, we find that, on average, news outlets tend to consistently report on attacks on the opposition party in the speeches but under-report on more substantive electoral issues covered in the speeches such as farmers' issues and infrastructure.
