Abstract
This study develops a method to map frames in Japanese news. Computer analysis helps to map frames in the news basing on the frequency and co-occurrence frequency of key words in the press coverage of the ASEAN Summit held in 2005. The analysis revealed that Japanese press made an emphasis on Japan's domestic problems in the ASEAN Summit report and failed to fully express the main points of the summit. A comparison between the frame map of press and that of the declarations of the summit showed the difference between the coverage and the reality.
