Countries in Headlines – 2014

These are the countries that were offered the most attention in 2014. Information about them were presented to the viewer from the top of the news programmes: the headlines. For each news programme we can normally code for up to 5 headlines. The news bulletins do not always include headlines, especially when live events or breaking news are given priority. Headlines can also be introduced as top stories and each channel can have in between one and a few such presentations of the main topics in brief. These topics are later developed into full reports, what we call items in our results.
