Abstract
The Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of State Council of China released the Circular on Further Optimizing the Implementation of Preventive and Control Measures for the New Crown Pneumonia Epidemic on December 7, 2022, marking a dramatic shift in prevention and control policy. Focusing on this policy change, the article compares the reports of two well-known newspapers media before and after this shift and analyzes the adjustments made by Peoples Daily and The Times in the narrative framework and the narrative characteristics they exhibit. This paper focuses only on the reports published by the two newspapers, and conducts a dual analysis based on word frequency and content frame. The results of the analysis show that the frames of the reports of the two media show more obvious differences, and the narrative frames of different media show significant differences.
