In December of 2019, the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan, China, marked the beginning of the pandemic and the most extensive global public health crisis of the 21st century. Globally, as of April 2022, there have been 490 million confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 6 million death. The COVID-19 pandemic also impacted every member of the world and changed the world and everyone's way of living. The first stage of the COVID-19 outbreak in China has attracted significant attention from the media worldwide. The western press carried out massive coverage from the beginning. The British media made extensive and detailed reports on China's COVID-19 situation and maintained continuous attention for the next two years. Together, these reports have painted a panorama of lives under the haze of COVID-19 in China and presented it to the readers.  However, no news media organization can fully present a news event to its audience in its original form, which often edits and changes information based on their needs—choosing the events to report with different angles and tones to constitute the news framing. The news frame is constructed by the media's values and political stance, and this choice of news framing may ultimately affect their target audience. The covid-19 outbreak in China later affected the whole world has been a huge news event. This paper will conduct a systematic, comprehensive study and analysis of the news coverage from The Guardian (a famous British left-wing media) and The Daily Telegraph (a famous British right-wing press) in China's Covid-19 situation to understand how they structure news stories.  Based on research on the subject and content of the Guardian/Daily Telegraph coverage, according to the theme and scope of its reports and divided into seven analysis framings: general coverage of COVID-19, pandemic restriction status, economic impact, COVID-19 origin, concealment of early cases, and vaccination. I will conduct qualitative and quantitative research and analysis based on the changes in the report's focuses, changes in the reporting rates, and opinion trends. Please find out how they construct the news framing while reporting COVID-19 in China. Further study the differences in the frames of two major press by analyzing the focus and perspectives of their coverage. Analyze the differences between two press views under the same framing at the same event. What is the reason for the difference in news framing between The Daily Telegraph and The Guardian?

This diploma thesis deals with the reception of the newly established Czechoslovakia by the British press from 1918 to 1922. My task was to find out how often and in what context did Czechoslovakia appear in the press and what was the difference between the image of the republic in each newspaper. Secondarily, my task was to evaluate the success of the Czechoslovak propaganda in Britain. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part presents the context of the emergence of Czechoslovakia, Czechoslovak-British diplomacy aims and cultural propaganda in the given period. One chapter is dedicated to the history of the British press and includes profiles of the journals examined. The practical part incorporates both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Four broadsheets in total were analysed; The Times, The Manchester Guardian, The Daily Telegraph and a Sunday newspaper The Observer. Quantitative content analysis of The Times was used to determine the frequency, the length and the interest of the mentions of Czechoslovakia as well as the theme of the articles. Based on the quantitative analysis, sample time periods were selected for the qualitative section. The qualitative analysis further deepens the quantitative part and presents the explicit and implicit attributes that Czechoslovakia was...
