Pentagon says Trump approves Army firing squad execution of Fort Hood killer Nidal Hasan
Former Army Maj. Nidal Hassan was sentenced to death after a court-martial that convicted him of killing 13 and wounding 32 others at an Army base in Texas.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on Trump clearing the way for Nidal Malik Hasan to face an Army firing squad, and both tie the coverage to the Fort Hood shooting. Fox News frames it as Trump “clearing the way” nearly 17 years after the massacre, while The Hill foregrounds the sentencing announcement and attributes the move to a Pentagon spokesperson and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
