News coverage is the process by which news media select, interpret, and present information about events, issues, and individuals to an audience. As an academic concept and methodological approach, it involves the systematic analysis of this mediated representation, investigating its volume, tone, sources, framing, and thematic emphasis across various platforms. This concept explores how journalistic practices, organizational factors, and socio-political contexts shape the production and characteristics of news content, holding significance for understanding media's role in shaping public understanding, influencing public discourse, and contributing to the construction of social reality.
