TY - JOUR TI - Framing the Russian Aircraft Crisis: News Discourse in Turkey’s Polarized Media Environment AB - This article analyzes the way in which the downing of a Russian aircraft by a Turkish F-16 jet on 24November 2015 was framed by pro-government (Türkiye, Yeni Akit, Yeni Şafak) and anti-government(Cumhuriyet) newspapers. Framing means selecting some aspects of a perceived reality and makingthem more salient in a communicating text. News frames give us definitions and identify thoseresponsible for an event; make moral judgements; and propose solutions to problems. The analysis ofthe news frames utilized by four newspapers underlines the fact that in a polarized media environmentnews frames are highly politicized and the distinction between news frames and official discourse isfrequently blurred.
