The Media Framing of Blame Agency in Asymmetric Conflict: Who is Blaming Whom for the 2014 Israeli-Palestinian Peace Negotiations Failure
Utilizing the 2014 Israeli-Palestinian failed peace negotiations, this study examines the relationship between blame agency, the national identity of a newspaper, and the type of newspaper.

Through quantitative and qualitative analyses, our study found that episodic framing is exclusively utilized when presenting action-based blame, which explicitly cas…

When the past seeps into the present: The role of press agencies in circulating new historical narratives and restructuring collective memory during and after the Holocaust transitional justice
This article examines the role of national and international journalism practices during and after the Holocaust transitional justice process, based on a comparative study of press agency coverage of Switzerland’s neutrality during World War II investigated from the mid-1990s. By studying the transitional justice process (1995–2002), and the 11 years following it (2002–2013), one can observe the media’s capacity to create a dedicated domain where…
