BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Protester-centered framing: the articles build the narrative around the demands of the street and the legitimacy of Fedorov, more so than from the perspective of the dismissed military leadership

Preference for official and parliamentary sources: direct quotes from Zelensky, Fedorov, and Deputy Zhelezniak, with few independent voices from the military command

Limited coverage of operational consequences on the front or Russian reaction: the focus remains on the internal political crisis rather than the immediate tactical impact
