Kate Upton on Viral Moment with Justin Verlander

What the coverage shows

Both outlets center on Justin Verlander’s retirement and Kate Upton’s role in the coverage, with NBC News repeatedly framing the story around an on-air interview and the couple’s personal reactions. NBC’s extracts also single out the “meet-cute” and a viral 2014 moment, while Fox News is the only outlet to foreground SI Swimsuit’s retirement sendoff and a throwback to Upton’s cover shoot.
