Abstrak

This study analyzed 911 articles from three major newspapers—<i>Vanguard</i>, <i>Daily Trust</i>, and <i>Leadership</i>—using framing theory to assess coverage. Content analysis revealed most headlines were positively framed. The most prevalent frame was attribution of responsibility, while the morality frame appeared least frequently. These findings underscore the influential role of media framing in shaping public health perceptions and highlight the impact of social and political influencers on pandemic-related information dissemination.
