Abstract

This study examines the coverage of the Egyptian revolution of 2011 in the Arabic-language Aljazeera and the CNN news releases. By analyzing the framing of their news stories, this study compares and contrasts the news coverage of Aljazeera and CNN on the topic of the protesters, democracy, the Egyptian government, and the International community's response to the events, and more specifically, the United States' response. The results showed each media organization had its own framing and audience that it focused its news coverage based on that.
