In Ethiopia, an internal armed conflict has recently erupted between the federal government and the Tigray regional state ruling party (TPLF). So, this research was selected to investigate the media coverage and the framing of this conflict. The main purpose of this study was to examine how the Ethiopian Broadcasting Corporation (EBC) and Ethiopian Satellite Television and Radio (ESAT) television news channels covered and framed the conflict and also to identify their contribution to peace resolution during their coverage of the conflict. In order to accomplish the research, four basic questions were prepared. To answer these fundamental questions, the study used a descriptive case study research design, a qualitative and quantitative research approach, as well as content analysis. It also used a purposeful sampling method to answer the research questions. To inform the study, agenda setting and framing theories were used. According to the quantitative content analysis findings, the conflict has received wide coverage in both media outlets. In their news reporting of the conflict, the media do not contribute that much to peace resolution. They do not depict peace-oriented journalism. The framing analysis results also show that in their coverage of the incident, both media outlets depicted the incident or the conflict as a law enforcement operation aimed at restoring law and order. In the identified war journalism frame, they portrayed the conflicting groups as winners and losers. But their perspective on portraying the incident was quite different. EBC depicted the incident as a war between the country's destroyer and its protector. ESAT, in contrast, described it as a conflict between two groups whose goals are incompatible. The law enforcement term and defeated vs victory elements are more salient in the news reports. This research recommends both the media to consider their reporting of the conflict according to journalism norms and also their contribution to peace initiatives and reconciliation during conflict reporting.
