Abstract

Panama leaks were 11.5 million internal documents publicly presented by ICIJ against the corrupt officials, in which the then sitting prime minister of Pakistan was also involved. In this paper, we collected dataset of cartoons on panama leaks published in two English newspapers Daily Dawn and Daily Nation, from April 2016 to July 2017 based upon four categories: 1) change in Pakistani politics, 2) Effect on economy, 3) corruption in elite class, and 4) impacts on international relations. To get more insights from panama visuals we categorized our data into favorable, unfavorable and neutral cartoons. Based upon these categories, five different research hypotheses are built and z-test is conducted. Our results show that Daily Dawn published 68% national and 32% international cartoons, while Daily Nation printed 72% national and 28% international cartoons. Our study concludes that Daily dawn published 24% favorable, 59% unfavorable and 17% neutral cartoons while Daily Nation issued 31% favorable, 59% unfavorable and 10% neutral cartoons.
