China’s political elite gather for talks on Communist Party discipline

The four-day meeting is being watched closely for clues as to the country's direction and future leadership.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets frame the gathering as a discipline-focused meeting watched for signs of where China’s leadership is heading. The Economist is the only one to foreground “purges and promotions” and to mention Xi Jinping seeking new ways to curb corruption before a leadership shake-up, while Al Jazeera instead emphasizes that the four-day meeting is being watched for clues about the country’s direction and future leadership.
