Picked by our model, which is sometimes wrong

  • The number of victims killed varies slightly, with some sources reporting nine deaths and others reporting eight.12

Framing

How the first headlines put it

  • Times of India focuses on the specific details about the victims including children and a pregnant woman, while Sydney Morning Herald emphasizes the overall number of fatalities without specifying victim demographics.12
  • Daily Mail highlights the personal tragedy involving a heavily-pregnant mother and her two children, whereas ABC News (AU) focuses on the broader impact with a pregnant woman among the victims.34
