This work models narrative media framing through conflict, resolution, and the roles assigned to people or organizations, including heroes, victims, and villains. It introduces an annotated English news dataset and a case study of climate-change coverage across the political spectrum.

The paper evaluates supervised, semi-supervised, and retrieval-based approaches to multi-label frame prediction. Its annotation process breaks document-level judgments into binary questions.
