- Abstract
This study approaches news sources in western newspapers by comparing their use in the US, UK, Australia, France and Germany's coverage on the Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands dispute from 2011 to 2013. The qualitative analysis of these sources reveals more similarities than differences concerning the balanced sources from disputing countries (China and Japan), news patterns, the salience of the U.S. sources and the dominance of elite sources, which may be reflective of the decisive role of the norm of journalism and their shared democratic values. The news frame analysis of the news coverage reveals news sources cannot determine news frame and its final form though they do influence the news.
