"framing"

To quote:

"It's time for enviros to think in a more careful and calculated way about the way they frame their issues. Progressives are forever wedded to the idea that the unvarnished truth is all we need: Give the people the facts and they'll draw the right conclusions. "That," says UC Berkeley professor and newly minted pundit George Lakoff, "has been a disaster."

Is "framing" just common sense in explaining clean air and water issues to the public, or the ultimate in media age manipulation?
