dc.description.abstract This study analyzed the news coverage of Osama bin Laden’s killing to look at the framing of counterterrorism news in the US and Pakistan. The news coverage of one elite newspaper from each country – DAWN and The New York Times – was studied for a period of one week immediately after the 2011 US raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, which resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden. The research employed qualitative framing analysis. The study found that DAWN and The New York Times relied heavily on episodic framing. Also, the collaboration frame and conflict frame dominated DAWN coverage while “attribution of responsibility” and “continuing war against terrorism” frames were used more by The New York Times. en_US
