| Challenge: | Automated frame analysis of political communication has been limited by the use of predefined frames and the visual contexts in which they appear. |
| Approach: | They propose a method for doing multi-modal, multi-label framing analysis at scale using large (vision-) language models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method provides a more complete picture for understanding media bias. |
