The aim of this study was to examine and compare how two different climate protest cases were framed in two Swedish newspapers with different political slants, namely, Aftonbladet and SvD. The study also sought to analyze potential differences between the newspapers, and how closely the portrayals aligned with the protest paradigm. The first protest involved the activist group ‘Återställ Våtmarker’, who gathered on the highway and caused a traffic stop in order to advocate for the restoration of Swedish wetlands. In the second case, climate activists, including Greta Thunberg, participated in a blockade at the entrance to the Parliament to promote climate justice. To examine the framing of these protests, a dataset of articles was analyzed using qualitative content analysis in the form of framing analysis, grounded in the theoretical framework of framing theory and the protest paradigm. The protest paradigm is the tendency of news media to portray protests in a negative light, often depicting them as disruptions to the established order. The study found that the protest on the highway was framed more negatively and thus aligned more closely with the protest paradigm than the other protest. The framing of the Parliament protest, which diverged from the paradigm, was more positive, and mostly emphasized the purpose of the action as well as demonstrated stronger support for the activists. No differences were identified between the newspapers' news articles, but it was noted that the opinion pieces about the parliamentary protest differed. While Aftonbladet's opinion pieces praised the activists, SvD's strongly criticized them.
