• Quotes Trump but pairs with distancing or critical context
• Foregrounds Trump's failures, limits, and controversies
• Includes direct negative quotes from third parties about Trump
• Highlights institutional pushback against Trump's actions

Many headlines report Trump's statements neutrally, but the selection includes critical framing (e.g., 'exposes Trump’s limits', 'Californians fume', 'Senate advances resolution to curb Trump’s war powers') and a direct insult quote, indicating a skeptical stance toward Trump as an actor.

• factual reporting of US actions and statements
• occasional negative framing via selection (deportations, shutdowns, scandals)
• neutral quoting of Trump without evaluative language
• mix of US domestic and foreign policy coverage

The bundle includes both neutral reporting of US official actions (e.g., Trump's meetings, policy announcements) and negative-valence stories about US entities (e.g., ICE detentions, Spirit Airlines shutdown, Weinstein trial). However, the outlet's own voice is largely factual; negative framing comes from story selection rather than editorial language. No consistent positive or negative stance toward the US as an entity is evident.

• Impeachment process coverage with no evaluative language toward Duterte
• Quotes from both pro- and anti-impeachment sources without editorial slant
• Focus on legal and political mechanics rather than personal character
• Use of neutral descriptors like 'camp', 'allies', 'prosecution'

All headlines concern Sara Duterte's impeachment; the outlet reports the process factually, quoting both sides. No headline expresses editorial stance toward Duterte herself. The entity is the subject of legal proceedings, but the outlet does not frame her negatively or positively—it reports actions and statements neutrally. The bundle is entirely about impeachment mechanics, not Duterte's personal conduct or character.

• factual coverage of impeachment process
• quotes from multiple sides without evaluative framing
• focus on legal and political mechanics
• no direct editorial judgment on the country

The entity is 'PH' (the country), not any individual. Headlines overwhelmingly report on the Duterte impeachment process as a domestic political event, with no evaluative language toward the Philippines itself. The outlet treats the country as a neutral setting for political and legal developments. One headline (#25) frames the trial as a 'litmus test for PH democracy,' which implies a normative standard but is a quote from a source, not the outlet's own voice. Overall, stance toward the country is neutral.
