Jay Rockefeller, Senate voice on health care and security, dies at 89

The oil fortune heir was elected to five terms in the Senate, where he became known for championing and defending society’s most vulnerable.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets identify Jay Rockefeller as a former West Virginia governor and U.S. senator who died at 89. The New York Times adds the fuller name John D. Rockefeller IV and foregrounds his long Senate service and role in expanding health insurance for low-income children, while Fox News keeps the coverage to the basic death notice and his offices.
