Earlier today we showcased how Gemini 2.5 Flash makes it possible to trivially add advanced analytic capabilities like sentiment analysis and emotional assessment of news stories to our processing pipeline just by describing what we want in our prompt. By literally adding the text "SENTIMENT is the sentiment of the article as VERY POSITIVE, POSITIVE, NEUTRAL, NEGATIVE, VERY NEGATIVE" or "EMOTIONS is a list of the top 10 emotions the article evokes" to our prompt, Gemini 2.5 Flash instantly adds rich emotional analysis to our story segmentation processing. What about vastly more complex analytics like framing, narrative structure and context assessment? Could just asking Gemini to assess the "framing" or "narrative structure" or "context" of a story instantly add these incredibly rich dimensions to our analysis?
Simply by adding two extra sentences to our prompt, Gemini proves exceptionally adept at assessing the framing and narrative structure of each story, offering fascinating insights. Gemini's narrative structure assessment even goes as far as to describe piece-by-piece how each story was presented and the ordering of the detail it provides. Unsurprisingly, asking Gemini to provide historical context and significance of stories that occurred before its knowledge cutoff date yields quite usable results, while more recent stories that lack a connection to events in Gemini's knowledgebase yield generic context results. Framing and narrative structure analysis are effectively production-ready already, while the results below suggest context is best applied in a post processing stage that uses RAG and long context windows to give it sufficient surrounding information and related events to properly contextualize contemporary events.
Let's start with the same 2018 evening news broadcast we've been using for our experiments. We'll use yesterday's prompt, but add the following instruction to our prompt:
FRAMING is a few sentences that concisely describe the framing of the story.

DESCRIPTION: Michael Cohen, President Trump's longtime personal attorney and fixer, pleaded guilty to eight felony charges, including campaign finance violations, false statements, and tax evasion. Prosecutors stated these payments were intended to influence the 2016 election, specifically to silence two women, Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, who Cohen believed would be detrimental to Donald Trump's campaign. Cohen acknowledged in court he was working "in coordination and at the direction of a candidate for federal office," later confirmed in court documents to be Donald Trump. The President's initial denials of knowledge about the payments were contradicted by his new attorney, Rudy Giuliani, who admitted Trump repaid the funds funneled through a law firm. The story details the 'catch and kill' practice used to bury Karen McDougal's story and the increasing pressure on Cohen, leading to his cooperation with authorities despite Trump's initial confidence.

The generated contexts are quite useful for several of the stories, providing a sufficient background refresher to allow a viewer to fully understand the significance and meaning of the story. At the same time, the richness of those contexts lies in the fact that they are generated with the benefit of hindsight, contextualizing the circa-2018 story with developments emerging over the following 7 years.
Let's repeat the exact same prompt with a broadcast from two days ago to see how Gemini handles novel stories that have emerged past its knowledge cutoff. There is at least one hallucination in which the Narrative Structure of the Michigan Walmart mass stabbing is incorrectly copied from the heatwave story. We also see the challenges of the positive-negative sentiment scoring in which a heatwave, terrorist attack, fatal plane crash, double homicide and political reaction to the Epstein files are all merely "negative" stories, while wildfires in Turkey and Greece are "very negative". Interestingly, despite these stories being so recent, the Context fields provide a bit of background information for longstanding stories and general context for new ones.

Let's drop sentiment and add additional instructions for the Context field:
CONTEXT is a few sentences that describe the context of the story and surrounding events to help a reader understand the story, its background, its importance, etc, make sure to provide historical background and context to understand how the event fits into the bigger picture.
Once again, the Context field proves less useful as a whole for newer stories since there is less in Gemini's knowledgebase to contextualize it, so it ends up providing more generic responses. This suggests that the best approach to Context would be to perform it at a later postprocessing stage and provide it with an array of related coverage via RAG or similar to give it sufficient related material to fully understand its context:
