What the coverage shows
Both outlets lead on Jay-Z’s Super Bowl halftime appearance, but they frame his role differently. BBC News presents it as a straightforward performance announcement and adds that he has been involved with the show for years but has never performed at the NFL championship game. 60 Minutes, by contrast, foregrounds Jay-Z as the halftime show producer and says he has selected himself to headline, wording that appears only in its extract.
