New Supreme Court term begins with justices stumped by climate change case

What the coverage shows

NBC News alone frames the story around Democrats’ expectation that they would not fill a Supreme Court vacancy under Trump, while the Washington Post instead centers Susan Collins and her 2018 Kavanaugh vote as a reelection issue. The two do not converge on the same angle in the headlines or extracts, and the Post’s coverage appears only to mention the vacancy through that broader Collins lens.
