• Direct quotation without evaluative framing
• Policy actions reported as events
• No editorializing adjectives or adverbs about Trump
• Mix of positive and negative developments reported equally

Headlines are predominantly factual, reporting Trump's statements and actions without overt praise or criticism. The outlet does not use distancing verbs like 'claims' or 'alleges' consistently, nor does it employ hostile framing. However, the inclusion of a headline about a conviction for an assassination attempt (6) and a Supreme Court ruling against tariffs (9) could imply a neutral balance of positive and negative events. No clear stance toward Trump as a person emerges.

• straightforward news headlines without evaluative adjectives
• mix of positive economic indicators and negative corporate results
• neutral coverage of political events and policy announcements
• no editorializing or framing language toward Japan as a country

Coverage is a mix of business, politics, and culture; no consistent positive or negative framing toward Japan as an entity. Headlines are factual and descriptive, with no apparent bias.

• Quotes Trump directly without evaluative framing
• Reports US policy moves as factual events
• Includes US official statements as authoritative sources
• Mixes positive and neutral coverage of US actions

Coverage is largely factual and neutral, with no overt hostility or celebration toward the US. Headlines quote Trump and US officials without distancing verbs or evaluative language, but also report on controversial actions (tariffs, revoking regulations) without endorsement. The entity is treated as a standard news subject, not as a target of criticism or praise.
