What the coverage shows
All three outlets center on the investigation being reopened, but they frame it differently. ABC News foregrounds prosecutors and the reopening itself, while The Guardian US keeps the coverage bare in its headline. The Independent is the only one to foreground a civil lawsuit, alleged campus negligence, and claims that some people were punished with essay-writing.
Written by Crossfiled from the 3 headlines and extracts below, not from the articles themselves. It describes how the outlets framed this, not what happened. Open any headline for a summary of that article.
