At least 16 people killed by powerful earthquake in Tibet
It was the biggest earthquake in the region in the last five years, China's national broadcaster CCTV said.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets focus on the quake’s reported toll and the 7.0 magnitude, and all mention damage to homes in Tibet. South China Morning Post is the only one to give both the 16 dead and 32 injured in its headline and to specify more than 300 houses collapsed. CBS News adds only that CCTV called it the biggest earthquake in the region in five years.
