Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The paper explores in comparative terms the national elite newspapers? framing of 9/11 in the US, France, Italy and Pakistan. The empirical investigation serves a broader theoretical objective: showing that international comparative research can contribute to theoretical innovation.The study specifically addresses the case of the indexing hypothesis about state/press relations. It starts from the consideration that political communications research is dominated by theories developed through studies carried out in the US. Relying on modified versions of the same methods and virtually almost the same data, the hypothesis has been refined in several ways in the last fifteen years, but the conclusion is always that media content is found to be indexed to the range of debate within political elites. The study sets off to verify the validity and scope of the hypothesis by testing it on foreign contexts.The analysis compares the news framing of 9/11 in the four different countries to the contents of the respective political discourses revealing that at an international comparative context the hypothesis acquires a totally different meaning. The comparative perspective reveals not only that a certain amount of indexing is ?obvious?, but also that the ?indexing effect? is due to other variables than a supposed influence by political actors. Such dynamics could not have been observed within a single country. The study therefore emphasizes the need to cross national borders in order to allow political communications discipline?s development and theoretical regeneration, especially in a globalized and fast-changing world.
