A private plane headed to the Bahamas from Texas crashed in Palm Beach county and exploded on impact Sunday Investigators are searching for the cause of a plane crash in a heavily populated area of Palm Beach county, Florida, that killed all nine people onboard.

What the coverage shows

All outlets center the same basic facts: a small or private jet crashed in South Florida and killed all nine people aboard, often with video or audio evidence highlighted. AP, BBC, The Independent and The Guardian all foreground dramatic imagery or cockpit audio, while The Hill is the only outlet to explicitly lead with the federal probe. The New York Times and ABC frame their pieces more as explainers or updates than crash footage.
