Sammanfattning	Sentiment analysis is the automated estimation of the valence — positive, negative, or neutral tone — of communication messages, adapted from natural-language processing into a core measurement technique for media and communication research. It lets scholars quantify the tone of news coverage, the affect of social-media discourse, or audience reactions across corpora far too large for hand coding, while treating tone as a measurable, validatable construct.	Manifest content analysis is a quantitative research technique that systematically counts the explicit, surface-level features of communication messages — words, sources, themes, images, or actors that are directly visible in the text or media artifact — according to a predefined coding scheme. Rooted in Bernard Berelson's classic definition of content analysis as the 'objective, systematic, and quantitative description of the manifest content of communication,' it is one of the foundational empirical methods of mass communication and media research.
