Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Combining framing theory and studies on triangle relationship in international politics research, this research seeks to explore media’s healthier role in reporting international dialogues in the shifting triangle relationship. By clarifying a misconception in extant research that biases are unavoidable in framing, the article suggests that news framing can be both objective and advocacy towards an event. A summary of previous works on triangle relationship interprets how dialogues can happen in the changing international environment, which provides the basis for definition of “objective” and “advocacy” reporting of international dialogue. A comparison of BBC Online’s news reports and audiences’ comments on Tony Blair’s visit to Libya is conducted within this research frame. It is found out that audiences are capable to establish a more objective and advocacy frame than the media. On the macro level, while BBC Online draws diverse key words into reports, the frame is inherently biased and misleading for many key words revolve around the same theme. However, from the micro perspective, the narrative style is open and relatively objective, inviting the audience to interpret the issue independently without being much influenced by media biases. Suggestions are offered for media to play a healthier role in international dialogue in the shifting triangle relationship.
