Royal Navy sailor charged with spying

A 24-year-old man who's been serving with the Royal Navy is appearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court in London today, charged with spying.

What the coverage shows

All three outlets focus on the same court appearance and the allegation of spying linked to Russia, with Sky News and The Guardian US both adding that the Royal Navy serviceman is accused of handling classified or protected information. The Guardian US alone names Teddy Young, gives his age and place of origin, and notes the charge under the National Security Act after counter-terror police arrest. Channel 4 News is the briefest, framing it simply as a Royal Navy sailor charged with spying.
