This frames the story early on around prominence and timeliness. The story puts an emphasis on the historic nature of his election to the papacy, while immediately contrasting him with the late Pope Francis. The word "wildcard" here suggests unpredictability. Nobody expect him, an American pope, to be selected for this huge role.

The emphasis on "first US leader" puts an emphasis on the unusualness of the matter and proximity for American readers.

The personal testimony here appeals to the news value of human interest. It portrays Prevost as approachable and resilient. It gives him a sense of warmth and stability...something very easing to the Catholic population.

Invokes conflict, one of the news values we talked about in class. It shows his ability to navigate division...something that pope will need to be able to do. The phrase "moderating influence” frames him as a key peacemaker.

The simplicity of “Peace be with you” resonates with audiences and sets a tone for his gentle leadership narrative.

Prominence mentioned...links the papacy to global politics. Including President Trump's reaction paints more of a political narrative, showing how the papal leadership can intersect with secular power of foreign leaders like Trump.

Poll being described as independent and non-partisan builds further credibility and consistency.

The poll was conducted over a short, recent window. This reduces bias and keeps the work timely.

The Quinnipiac University poll rotated response options to minimize order effects and priming. This decision to do so improves the validity of responses.

The survey includes a strong sample size of 1,013 U.S. adults which gives us strong national level insights. Also important to note further down in that paragraph that 399 of those people identify themselves as basketball fans who watch the NBA.

This poll is clear and transparent. This being stated so clearly helps us as readers to assess the reliability of the subgroup comparisons.

The Quinnipiac University poll used the Ipsos KnowledgePanel, which recruits participants for their survey via address-based sampling. This method uses a probability-based sample, which increases the poll’s generalizability to the average U.S. adults.

Quoting the ICJ and referencing international law provides some legal weight. It frames the issue as not only political, but a complete violation and neglect for our world. This quote, to me, evokes some sort of responsibility or guilt in me as an American that this is happening on the other side of the world right now.

The word "access" metaphorically treats aid efforts as something blocked or gated.

This metaphor right away in the headline of the story frames hunger as a deliberate military tactic. It implies that denying food is not only neglect, but it's a sign of aggression, like using guns or bombs.

The metaphor gives the building human-like traits to describe it. The quote frames the East Wing as gentler and more welcoming. On the other hand, the West Wing seems to be more aggressive.

Going to a preservation expert adds some legitimacy to this story.

The description "pile of rubble" makes the project sound destructive. It's an opinion. It metaphorically frames President Trump and his decision as a cultural wrecking ball, taking down part of a historical building like the White House.

The quote utilizes emotional appeal to frame the East Wing as sacred to the White House. It has an influence on the story, making it centered around loss. The story guides readers more towards mourning rather than analyzing the situation of the construction.

This is also a fact. It's a count of how many days the government has been shut down for and can be verified by several sources. You'd get the same answer wherever you look.

This is factual information. If you looked up what the SNAP program is online, you'd get the same explanation of how the program works.

Criticism is opinion. It's their judgement about how the money is being spent. Some people are in support of Trump building the new ballroom at the White House, and others strongly oppose it.

This is a fact that came from a research group. It's based on numbers and thorough analysis.

This is an opinion put out by congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, who comes from my home state of Connecticut. It shows clearly how she feels, not a proven fact. She has been very publicly outspoken about how she opposes many of Trump's initiatives.

Fact, SNAP is a huge program that's used by millions of Americans, and this is a more specific statistic that can easily be looked up.

This is an opinion. It's a more dramatic way of saying there's no money, not a clear number, fact, or statistic.

This is a factual claim that's linked to a government source. It can be validated through USDA announcements.

Impact stretches beyond this crime, but the lack of security priceless French treasures over the past several months

Impacts the nation both financially and culturally. This line also carries prominence, since it involves the French state and national property...it's not only a private loss.

This quote brings in human interest. It's not only about stolen jewels, but also about greed, destruction and value, which adds a more personal element to the story.

Mentioning an elite police force being brought into the investigation adds a special level of prominence, showing this is a high-stakes investigation over priceless jewels. It also shows impact as well, since the government is taking this matter very seriously at a national level.

This adds conflict between the media's narrative and the museum itself. Journalists include this because of the tension and disagreement to make stories more engaging to the reader.

The quote from the culture minister is very defensive and repeated. Officials like her influence the media to protect their image through their word choices. Reiterating "that is a fact" further solidifies this idea.

Calling these individuals a "gang" makes this heist seem organized and dangerous. As an American, the proximity isn't super relevant to me since France is on the other side of the ocean. However, Oltermann is an effective storyteller, making this crime seem like a movie...crime-focused and dramatic.

This line takes the blame and puts it on the leadership, shifting the focus on accountability. It frames this story as one that could've happened because someone didn't do their job.

The word choice of "dramatic" makes the story sound really exciting and huge. It's written to captivate the audience's attention right away, making this story seem like an important one. It's written to grab attention from the get-go, not just report facts.
