Virginia state senator blasts DOJ indictment over alleged drug scheme: 'I will not be bullied'
An indictment unsealed on Thursday charged Lucas and six other defendants, including several of her relatives
What the coverage shows
Both outlets lead on the same basic charge against Virginia state Sen. L. Louise Lucas, and both frame it as a legal case involving marijuana-related accusations. The Independent adds the Justice Department’s language, calling it drug trafficking and money laundering and saying the indictment also names six other defendants, including relatives, while CNBC alone keeps Lucas’s Trump-critic label in the headline.
