Hurricane Simon lashes Mexico's Pacific coast as a powerful Category 3 storm
Simon skirted along Mexico's Pacific coast as a major hurricane on Sunday.
What the coverage shows
Most outlets converge on Simon becoming a Category 4 hurricane and heading toward Mexico’s Pacific coast. CBS News and the Associated Press frame it as a storm taking aim at Mexico, with AP adding that Puerto Vallarta was preparing for landfall, while BBC News similarly emphasizes the storm bearing down on the coast and its rain and wind. Sky News is the outlier here, because its headline and extract focus on Hurricane Isaias and deaths in the US rather than Simon.
