Collected through purposive sampling technique, a comparative qualitative analysis of selected programs of Tawde Khabare and the text of President Trump\u2019s Afghanistan policy suggests that the post-Taliban US-established Afghan media system has largely adopted and borrowed ready-made news frames and official narratives disseminated by the US government to domestic and global media. The findings suggest further that official frames of Donald Trump\u2019s Afghanistan policy received greater acceptability in the Tolo TV coverage of the concerned issue. The study has raised<br \/>\nseveral questions regarding the credibility of the post-Taliban Afghan media system and as do similar systems in other post-conflict societies established through the financial and technical help of the US and allied states after 9\/11.<br \/>\n<strong>Keywords<\/strong>: US, Trump, Afghan Media, Frames, Taliban<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Trumps-Afghanistan-Policy.How-Afghan-Main-Stream-Media-borrowed-the-Official-US-Narrative-to-Frame-The-Myth-of-Peace-1.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-112 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Download-Article-Button-e1560584816429.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"218\" height=\"57\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump\u2019s Afghanistan Policy: How Afghan Mainstream Media Borrowed Official US Narratives to Frame the Myth of Peace Sher Baz Khan Bahria University, Islamabad Qaisar Khan Bahria University, Islamabad Abstract This study draws from scholarship in framing theory and mediated collective memories for the analysis of the adoption of official narratives of US President Donald Trump\u2019s <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/article\/trumps-afghanistan-policy-how-afghan-mainstream-media-borrowed-official-us-narratives-to-frame-the-myth-of-peace-sher-baz-khan-bahria-university-islamabad-qaisar-khan-bahria-university-i\/\">Read More &#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_lock_modified_date":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"issuem_issue":[5],"class_list":["post-269","article","type-article","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","issuem_issue-volume-02-issue-01-january-june-2018"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/269","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=269"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/269\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":270,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/269\/revisions\/270"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=269"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=269"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=269"},{"taxonomy":"issuem_issue","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pdfpk.net\/pdf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issuem_issue?post=269"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
