The study is aimed at elaborating on the discourse side of the news articles by using Norman Fairclough's CDA with three dimensions: text analysis, discourse practice analysis, and social analysis.

The study provides insights into how British newspapers framed and interpreted the Indonesian Constitutional Court's decision on presidential candidacy eligibility, highlighting implications for media representation and public discourse.]]>
