In a focused study on Pakistani news outlets, the Gallup Digital Analytics team analyzed headlines to determine whether the news was predominantly positive, negative, or neutral. This sentiment analysis revealed significant insights into the narrative styles of different media organizations in the country. For instance, during certain critical periods, such as elections or national crises, the headlines were found to exhibit stronger negative sentiments, reflecting societal anxieties and concerns. Conversely, during times of national achievements or celebrations, positive sentiments were more prevalent. This detailed analysis helps stakeholders understand the broader media landscape in Pakistan, highlighting how leading news outlets shape and reflect public sentiment through their reporting.
