• Frequent use of 'Trump' as shorthand for US policy, often in critical contexts
• Headlines highlight controversies, criticism, and legal challenges
• Some neutral reporting on US actions and statements
• Occasional positive framing of US as diplomatic partner

The entity is 'US' but most headlines focus on Trump administration actions; stance is skeptical of US policy under Trump, not of the country as a whole. Headline 3 shows positive framing of US appreciation for Vienna, and headline 12 is neutral on business. The negative tone is driven by critical coverage of Trump's policies (tariffs, ICE, Venezuela deal) rather than blanket hostility.

• Frequent use of 'droht' (threatens) and 'verfügt' (decrees) framing Trump as unilateral and aggressive
• Foregrounding of legal challenges, lawsuits, and setbacks (e.g., 'verklagt', 'klagen', 'Millionen-Entschädigung')
• Quotes and labels that distance or criticize ('Wutrede', 'lächerlich', 'Vermögensraub')
• Highlighting of unfulfilled goals and economic harm ('Kriegsziele in weiter Ferne', 'Zölle bremsen US-Wirtschaft')

Some headlines are neutral factual reports of actions (e.g., 11, 12), and a few even note tactical wins (5, 13). However, the overall selection emphasizes controversies, legal defeats, and critical quotes, yielding a mildly negative stance toward Trump rather than outright hostility.

• predominantly factual reporting on domestic politics and economy
• occasional critical framing of specific actors (e.g., Novak, Stadler)
• no consistent evaluative language toward Austria as a whole

Entity is a country, not a single actor; coverage spans many unrelated topics (sports, culture, politics), making a unified stance inapplicable. Some headlines criticize Austrian politicians or institutions, but this does not reflect a stance toward the country itself.

• Mix of political and business news without consistent evaluative framing
• AfD-related headlines range from neutral to critical, but not uniformly hostile
• No clear pattern of praise or condemnation toward Germany as an entity

The entity 'DE' (Germany) is a country, not a person; coverage spans politics, economy, culture, and aviation. Headlines are mostly factual or focus on specific actors (AfD, companies, individuals) rather than on Germany as a whole. Some AfD items carry negative connotations (e.g., attack, Haftbefehl), but these target the party, not the country. No consistent stance toward Germany emerges.
