Taiwan shuts down schools and businesses as Typhoon Champi approaches
As Typhoon Champi approached Taiwan, most businesses and schools were closed across the island Friday and hundreds of flights were canceled in the region. Authorities reported at least one death and dozens of injuries and more than 1,200 people have evacuated their homes.

What the coverage shows
All four outlets converge on Typhoon Champi bringing disruptions as it nears Taiwan, with Reuters and AP using live, fast-updating framing focused on the storm’s track and impacts. France 24 is the only one to foreground closures across Taiwan, while SCMP uniquely highlights flight cancellations, including the detail that more than 70 Hong Kong-Taiwan flights were disrupted. Reuters also differs by splitting its coverage between Taiwan and Japan, with one item centering Ishigaki and another saying the storm is approaching Taiwan.
