What the coverage shows

Both Reuters updates and NBC News center the Paris protests on students, teachers and unions demanding better school conditions, and all three items frame the coverage as part of a larger day of action or wave of demonstrations. NBC is the only outlet to foreground arrests and injuries, while Reuters’ extracts emphasize the march, school blockades and a broader sense of crisis.
