For this purpose, a sample of 50 online news items combining headlines and images were collected from each newspaper, and two different but complementary analyses were performed, both within the socio-cognitive framework of multimodal discourse analysis. First, the image schemas present in both the texts and photos were identified, quantified and interpreted.
