N2  - A frame analysis was conducted on a Hong Kong newspaper to determine whether news coverage of female fatalities at the hands of their intimate partners was reported in conventional domestic violence ways or if there were culture-specific explanations. Overall, most coverage supported known views of domestic violence, justifying the perpetrator and categorizing the issue as isolated crime. However, a few stories highlighted the historical subordination of women under patriarchy in Confucianism as an important cultural factor. <br><br>FINDINGS have implications for the lack of generalization of the social problem, and the understanding of cultural and political power in Hong Kong society.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
