BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Chile-centric framing: coverage systematically privileges Chilean actors and initiatives (Topos Chile, Mocarquer, migration protocol) at the expense of a global view of the humanitarian catastrophe.

Political dimension emphasis: military harassment of rescuers and accusations from Venezuelan opposition figures receive comparable attention to the raw human toll of the disaster.

Limited coverage of Venezuelan ground conditions: the situation of displaced persons, overwhelmed hospitals, and epidemic risks receive little development compared to diplomatic concerns.
