France expects another wave of protests over the weekend. Leigh Kiniry reports.

What the coverage shows
Most outlets frame the story as a weekend of mass protests and the prospect of further unrest, with France 24, the BBC, CBS and ABC all stressing large crowds, heavy policing or fears of violence. Framing diverges on emphasis: the New York Times presents the movement as something that spread from a small student protest, The Independent focuses on museum closures in Paris, and CNBC is alone in recasting the coverage around market and investor risks. The Guardian and France 24 foreground arrests and police clashes more strongly than the shorter wire-style headlines.
