This thesis analyses the framing of Operation Rimfrost in Swedish media, using cultural criminology and framing theory, focusing specifically on the initial week of coverage following its announcement. More specifically, we examine how Aftonbladet and Expressen framed Operation Rimfrost during this time. The research question explores how these tabloids frame the narrative around Operation Rimfrost. This small-N study applies a mixed-methods approach that combines quantitative analysis based on generic framing theory with qualitative involving cultural criminology. Quantitative analysis identifies and categorises five generic frames while qualitative analysis delves into cultural narratives and symbols. It explores how two major Swedish tabloids, Aftonbladet and Expressen, framed the narrative around Operation Rimfrost, a law enforcement initiative that targeted organised crime and gang violence. This thesis contributes to political science, cultural criminology, and media studies. The findings reveal that both tabloids employed all generic frames, with 'Attribution of Responsibility' being the most common. Sensationalism had a minimal impact on the coverage. This research contributes to political science, cultural criminology, and media studies by addressing a gap in the portrayal of law enforcement initiatives in Swedish media. It emphasises the significance of media literacy in evaluating crime coverage and informs evidence-based crime prevention strategies.
