Abstract
This study examines how the American news media have framed the question of who is responsible for rising healthcare costs in the United States. Commercial pressures seem to influence news media to focus less on such social-level causes as pharmaceutical companies, while patients—an individual-level cause—have been mentioned most frequently as being responsible for rising healthcare costs.
