AI · cited, from two or more outlets

  • The lawsuits allege wrongful death and other misconduct against federal officials and ICE officers.23

  • CBS News reports that Good was shot during an argument, whereas The Guardian states she was protesting against the deployment of ICE agents.25

Framing

How the first headlines put it

  • The Independent focuses on wrongful death lawsuits, while NBC News emphasizes excessive force and civil rights violations.13
