Serbia’s student-led movement celebrates after longtime leader Aleksandar Vucic concedes defeat in a historic election. The result comes after a two-year peaceful protest movement that called for Vucic to step down.

What the coverage shows

CBS News and Reuters both frame the story around Vucic being voted out and the election result unseating a longtime leader. CBS foregrounds the “Putin-backed strongman” description and says he led with “virtually absolute power” for 14 years. Reuters instead centers a live briefing from international election observers and, in its extract, adds protests in Belgrade and elsewhere, which CBS does not mention.
