What the coverage shows
Both outlets centre the death of the 87-year-old woman linked to the eviction story, with Sky News foregrounding the death itself and The Independent keeping the protest angle in its headline. Sky News is alone in saying her eviction had sparked major protests in Spain and was partly responsible for a snap election, while The Independent is alone in adding that she had been in hospital since the eviction and naming her as Maricarmen Abascal.
