What the coverage shows
The outlets converge on France seeing fresh nationwide protests tied to strike action, with unions and workers central in every account. AP repeatedly foregrounds unions, higher wages and student support, while 60 Minutes frames the action around cost of living and public services. Al Jazeera and South China Morning Post both emphasize scale, and only South China Morning Post mentions tear gas and clashes in some cities.
