A qualitative inductive framing analysis was carried out. The results of textual analysis revealed two main frames: (i) human interest: internal unrest and fracture within the Ottoman Empire and (ii) emphasis on unification: isolation policy within international relations. While the former frame mainly included disinformation regarding the number of Armenians killed or wounded, combined with constant use of negative metaphors for Ottoman Empire and Muslim population, the latter frame focused on national, international support and forceful intervention of Europe rather than diplomatic pressure.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessThe Ottoman Bank RaidArmenian AttackBritish PressFramingPerceptionPublic OpinionArticle9710579WOS:000984112900001N/A
