• Mixed selection: positive institutional acts (memorial, G7 dinner) alongside criticism (heatwave unpreparedness, forest carbon sink)
• Frequent use of distancing verbs and attributions ('dénonce', 'accusés', 'selon l'Elysée')
• Focus on political actors and institutions rather than on France as a unified entity

The entity is a country, not a single actor; coverage is heterogeneous across policy domains. Some headlines criticize French government actions (heatwave, climate strategy), others report neutral or positive events (memorial, diplomatic meetings). No consistent evaluative stance toward France as a whole.

• Frequent use of 'Donald Trump' as the main actor, often in conflict or controversy
• Headlines highlight setbacks, scandals, and diplomatic tensions involving the US
• Neutral reporting of US tech company actions, but critical framing of US regulatory moves
• Selection emphasizes US government failures and international friction

The bundle focuses heavily on the Trump administration, not the US as a whole; some headlines are neutral (tech, G7). The outlet's stance is skeptical of the US government under Trump, but not uniformly hostile; coverage of US tech firms is neutral.

• Uses neutral verbs like 'menace', 'se résout', 'exploite' that imply calculation or aggression
• Highlights conflicts and controversies (lawsuits, threats, setbacks, congressional pushback)
• Frames Trump as self-interested or reactive ('s'autocélébrer', 'pour préserver sa crédibilité')
• Occasionally reports his wins or compromises without overt praise

Several headlines are purely factual or report Trump's actions without evaluative language (e.g., #5, #21). The negative stance is mostly conveyed through verb choice and selection of conflict/controversy stories, not through explicit hostile adjectives. Some headlines (#8, #22) even suggest European interest in engaging with him, which complicates a purely negative reading.
