Trump to close and renovate D.C. golf course, despite legal battle
President Trump continues his efforts to remake Washington, D.C. He wants to turn an area used by the public into a world-class golf course.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets foreground Trump’s announcement of a golf course project in Washington, D.C. The Hill frames it as a new East Potomac Links course and includes the Interior Department, Doug Burgum and Tom Fazio in its lead, while NBC News describes it as a plan to renovate or redevelop an existing D.C. golf course. NBC News alone notes that the course has been at the center of a legal battle.
