Pope Leo needs no further cancer treatment after lung surgery
Tests show the cancer was confined to the portion of the pope’s right lung that was removed, his doctors say. NBC News’ Anne Thompson reports.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets center on the doctors’ post-surgery update, with CBS News and Fox News explicitly saying no further cancer treatment is needed. The Independent’s headline is broader and only its extract says Pope Leo underwent lung cancer surgery last week. Fox News also separately ran an earlier item about Leo’s first audience after surgery, which the other outlets did not include here.
