“…Twitter has been explored as a substitute channel or amplifier for politicians (Silva and Proksch, 2022), with calls for combining qualitative methods with large-scale data analysis (Pal and Gonawela, 2017). Studies have also focused on opinion inversion (Matalon et al, 2021), disintermediation in political actors' social networks (Eldridge et al, 2019), and the construction of collective identity within social movements (Karataş, 2023). Additionally, research has investigated political polarization (Conover et al, 2011) and the delivery structure of nationalism messages (Sari et al, 2022) on Twitter.…”

This study explores the framing strategies employed by influential Pakistani political figures, Imran Khan, and Maryam Nawaz, on Twitter. By adopting Hallahan's framing theory as an analytical framework, we analyze their tweets to reveal how they strategically shape political narratives and influence public perceptions. The study enhances our understanding of the interplay between political communication and political identities, shedding light on the nuanced strategies used by political actors to construct persuasive narratives. Our findings provide evidence of Twitter's significant role as a powerful tool for political communication and discourse in the Pakistani context. This research contributes to the broader landscape of Pakistani political communication and the intersection between social media, politics, and framing strategies.

“…As such, climate change has become a concerned problem among Twitter users globally. Despite the fact that Twitter users are less than some other social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram, it is the most notable communication platform for collective action (Karataş, 2023; Newberry, 2018) particularly in climate change awareness (Chen et al, 2021). Twitter has a remarkable influence on public awareness about climate change and has duly pushed non-governmental organizations (NGOs) (Korada, 2013), and public figures such as politicians (Jacques & Knox, 2016; Maynard et al, 2017), scientists (Stier et al, 2018) and celebrities (Leas et al, 2016) to reach their audience across this platform (Fownes and Margolin, 2018).…”

This study has focused on the effective media, organizations, celebrities, politicians, and ordinary people that are interested in climate change across Twitter. A quantitative content analysis based on the cross-sectional analysis method was performed to assess (1,277,833) tweets from 21st Nov to 10th Dec 2016, which was close to the implementation of Paris Agreement on 4th Nov 2016. The study concluded that positive sentiments and attitudes were dominant compared to negatives, particularly toward media and scientific frames. However, neutral frames formed the biggest frame. This study recommends the unification of the efforts and the declaration of clear views and practical actions by all bodies such as scientists, celebrities, politicians, ordinary people, media, organizations including scientific institutions and centers to construct common knowledge, and evidence through variety ways so as to achieve the highest rate of raising awareness among people worldwide.

National park tourism is a critical factor in strengthening national identity. This study explores the construction process of national identity within the context of national parks through tourists' online comments on the Three‐River Source National Park. A semiotic structure—triadic relation—is adopted to explain the signification of national park landscapes. In the first semiotic relationship, the object of the national park landscape refers to a referential symbol. Through abduction, historical associations, object‐related authenticity, and the nationalization of nature are related to each other. In the second relationship, the object in the national park landscape refers to a condensation symbol. Through induction, romantics, existential authenticity, and the naturalization of the nation are related. Finally, we identified two types of landscapes that could interfere with tourists' interpretations: disqualified landscapes and repeated stimuli. These two landscapes were created as noise. We then discuss the theoretical and practical implications of these findings.
