DOJ trying to indict former White House aide who testified about Jan. 6
Hutchinson, a former aide to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, drew the ire of Trump's base when she testified in 2022 before the House Jan. 6 committee about Trump's actions that day.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story around the Justice Department’s effort to indict Cassidy Hutchinson, with Newsweek and CBS News each identifying her as a former Trump or Mark Meadows aide. The difference is in emphasis: CBS News centers Hutchinson’s Jan. 6 testimony and its political fallout, while Newsweek instead foregrounds a list of former Trump aides indicted and says Hutchinson faces a possible DOJ indictment.
