The death of 17-year-old student Kian Delos Santos last August 2017 happened as a result of President Duterte's war on drugs. Caloocan cops who conducted the anti-drug operation fatally gunned down the teenager claiming he carried a gun and two sachets of drugs. However, statements of witnesses present in the crime scene and CCTV footage did not align with the police report. News reports about the crime sparked controversy and outrage from Filipino citizens resulting to multiple protests in the streets and online as the public voiced out their reactions and opinions regarding the issue. The reactions of the public that rooted from the media's coverage of the Kian Delos Santos case show how the media has the power to set agendas and shape public belief. This study looked at the agenda-setting function of the online news websites of top media institutions in the country, ABS-CBN News (news,abs-cbn.com), CNN Philippine (cnnphilippines.com), GMA News Online (gmanetwork.com/news/) and Interaksyon (interaksyon.com) and analyzed how each news website presented the issue to the public with the use of a qualitative content analysis. The findings show that the four online news websites highlighted Kian's innocence and mostly used the attribution of responsibility frame in their articles as a way of seeking accountability and action from the government regarding the death of Kina Delos Santos.
